Springsteen’s “Secret Weapon”: How Jay Weinberg Scored a Spot in the E Street BandPhoto: Mazur/WireImage Last December E Street Band drummer Max Weinberg was driving his 18-year-old son Jay to school in Hoboken, New Jersey, when Bruce Springsteen called. “He wanted to talk to Jay,” says Max. “He said to him, ‘Jay, this is Bruce. You may have heard I have a band. In that band I have the world’s greatest drummer, who has a scheduling conflict. He gave me your name and number and suggested that I call you to see if you’d be interested in playing with me and the E Street Band.’ ” Jay accepted.

It’s in the genes.” As of now, Jay will only be needed for the six or seven shows of the European tour. “Conan has done so much to make it possible for Max to do both jobs,” says Landau. “Max has worked things ou
