spread the
knowledge and
technique of
drumming.
Although
Rene has
overcome
unbelievable
challenges in
the recent
years he is

Fred's alter ego
Jens Hannemann is
truly the drum
master/clinician of
our generation. Jens
has been capturing
not only the envy
and jealousy
of the biggest
names in drumming
today but he leaves
no stone unturned in
his new video "Complicated
Drumming Technique"!
If you want to
tackle the
techniques Jens is
definitely
delivering in his
new video, be sure
to pick up your copy
here!
ALSO, check out
Jen's interview in
the current issue of
Modern Drummer
magazine...an
interview you
shouldn't miss!
In
all seriousness
though, Fred is a
great drummer
outside of his
successful career in
acting and stand-up
comedy and is a
serious drummer...so
we are excited to
