I'm surprised he didn't mention Johnny " The Bee'" Badanjak. Bee is pictured on the cover of Max's book "The Big Beat." He was in the original Detroit Wheels. The Wheels were so successful in the late sixties The Who, Cream, and others opened up for them.. Bee hasn't worked with Mitch Ryder for years, but along with Jim McCarty they were one of the best rock and roll bands around.
Awesome.
Wonderful interview.....
Amazing Drummer !
Max was in the middle of the legendary Born in the USA tour by that point.
He's 100% right - my high school wouldn't let my band play in the 90's, there were no teen clubs, etc. Really unfortunate...
He's a drummer - his legs are moving to a beat! Can't sit still.
The year of this interview has to be wrong since he talked about playing Giants Stadium. That happened in '85.
Springsteen's music scene was not South Jersey. It is Central Jersey. Asbury is smack in the middle of the state.
Springsteen's autobiography is worth reading. Weinberg should put his auto- on paper also.
Pretty sure he did one called The Big Beat

Johnny B was a beast. His drumming on Devil With A Blue Dress On is awesome.
definitely not 1984. he mentions playing giants stadium “last summer”. they played giants stadium summer 85. so this is probably nov 85.
Max looks like Jay Weinberg, the drummer of Slipknot. I'm joking, Jay is Max's heavy metal drummer of a son.
The drummer for conan
What happened to his wrist
Probably backbeat-itis.
Tony Montana
He looks like Jason Schwartzman big time
Yes! I was just thinking he looks like a grown up Max Fischer from Rushmore

He looks like a coke dealer...
