[DIVASIVLIVS]

"Complicated Drumming Technique"--I can't stop laughing at that title.

[Chronic2112]

Dummies, that's Jens Hannemann.

[brainsareus]

it's funny that people are still getting psyched out by this.  yeah,he's a competent drummer,and yeah, this is a bullshit joke video. it does not have to be one or the other. both are true.

[TonyBono]

@brainsareus Exactly. Not sure how many people know this, but Fred was actually part of the Blue Man Group before moving on to SNL. Makes this video all the more funny.

[sicklysweet]

I now love Jimmy Eat World even more for linking to a Fred Armisen video <3

[SiddifOnline]

Needs more Travis Barker, a little Cow Bell wouldn't hurt either.

(also sent by Jimmy Eat World btw)

[LWBobbyB]

I guess no one here watches SNL or knows who Fred Armisen is...

[RatedXdrummer]

As good as this guy is he's very arrogant

[citymariner]

Thanks JEW, I'll get that for my drummer.

[ryanpatrick1984]

Most importantly. How to dominate a jam session. Haha lol

[TheMuscleHamster77]

[FFLink13]

[rabbot85]

haha, yes! fred armisen owns!

[TheTysweet4]

Haha Fred armison is hilarious

[laughingtiger123]

I worked with his drum video literally for a few HOURS and I came away with the confidence of YES I CAN! I kid you not guys, this july I got the gig for 4 months of road tour with STING! I did!

I just need to inform Sting that I got the gig with him and he'll need to make the necessary arrangements and so on...

[1mredneckmother]

I am not a musician, 'cept for my musical skin flute percussive technique and I found this mocumentary to be exceedingly insightful, so thanks to whomever posted it, 'cause I have a new idea regarding my upcoming skin flute solo. No I won't post it.

[Monsterdrumma]

I seen this video around 10 times in Manny's music store in NYC and I literally had tears running down my face every time I watched it, this is my favorite mocumentary since Spinal Tap!

[Xenite]

How awesome is it that he's wearing a Serenity shirt?! Shiny!

[metalheadrapper]

HAHAHA this is awesome!

[ReThord]

I remember the first time I saw this, and thought it was real. Then I saw the clip where he acted like bozzio and I laughed out loud.

[earcandy]

Very funny video. So true... ^^

[Quickgold1]

this is a joke video, pal

[tinkernator]

you totally fail at humour

[adamcox1975]

Hahahaha!!

[JimmersThomas]

"You either have it or you don't"

..bit like a sense of humour, eh?

[mw1016]

Hilarious!

[superjules]

This whole shebang was inspired by Marco Minneman's drum video; if you want to see the laborious original.

[Zeyta000]

If you've seen or bought this, take a look at the sheet music that comes with it, it's so hilarious.

[chrisplaysdrums]

hahah did anyone read the joke interview in mordern drummer he done as well hahahah

check it out if you havent yeet ! Its worth it.

[WildstarGoethe]

Yeah, I read the same or a similar article in Drum! magazine. Pretty hilarious.

[caincunt666]

i just got finished reading that article when i was shitting just a few minutes ago thats what made me want to watch this

[semskees]

Haha, his super-set. :D

[FinsterFlummoxing]

Jens Henneman was Ozzy Osbourn's original drum smith.

His instructional videos are used by the likes of Tommy Lee, Neil Pert, John Bonham, Lars Ulrich, Danny Carey, and Jimmy Sullivan.

[54spiritedwill54]

Jens is the best drummer alive

[moro5150]

Fred Armisen from Saturday Night Live, This is intended to be a joke..

[dofty]

Yeah, this video was hilarious! hahaha! xD

[miketalbot4]

Awesome

[strangelman]

"dominate a jam session"??!

A drummer shall not dominate a jam session!

A drummer, like the other musicians, shall float together and contribute to the jam...not dominate.

[flipadiddle]

dude, its a joke.

[YungCyfe]

exactly. in hip hop tho drums are the main part, it comes from the african culture, big drums

[yourbuddy7]

its not for real

[defcondev]

hahahahha half hour wont do anyone any good without someone to make sure youre doin it right.

[mhaythor]

I think it's dumb. Didn't laugh, though it is quite cheesy

[DrewbiousMaximus]

This can't be for real!!!!!

[bigboner1967]

dude i nearly pissed myself watching this DVD the other day, it was hilarious.

[keystop]

pretty funny

[progwrx]

Mike portnoy oficially loves this DVD, he choose it as his most recent "hero of the day" post...

" RE: MP's "Hero of the Day" - 2/13/2008 1:20:35 PM

Portnoy

Administrator JENS HANNEMANN

Pick up his "Complicated Drumming Technique" DVD....you wont be sorry!

He is my new drum hero!

'nuff said.... MP"

[Creothcean]

what fred armisen did was just go through drum storage with the blue man group sound techs and find anything and everything that could be tacked onto a drumset and create a super-set worthy of the envy of mike portnoy.

so: pedal-operated djembes, 22" hi-hats, he has it.

[madamemacphisto]

way to steal that from DRUM! magazine

[SomethingWeird42]

Jens Hannemann is not a real drummer, Fred Armisen of SNL plays the character. Although there was some good drumming on it. I love the part where the snare wires snap and the guy just hobbles off camera cussing. And the part when he is tuning the snare drum. "I call this a Para-diddle-addle-oodle."

[KoroOutbreak]

NO SHIT SHERLOCK

[Broadw4]

Haha! Nice!

[weevilboy]

I only wish this was longer!

[chillstar]

That's what she said

[scottkenemore]

Drum instructors are ripe for parody.

[ZildjianDrummer244]

Love the drum set.. but Marco Minnemann is better personally... Jens is still good though

[iwokojance]

Is Marco Minnemann who this guy is doing a parody of? It sure seems like it. I have the Extreme Interdependence dvd. That's why this is so funny to me. How to dominate a jam session. Classic. :D

[ZildjianDrummer244]

Idk... but I just personally think Marco is better...

[buckethead17]

the opening peace is a bit of a parody of terry bozzio, but after that he parodies marco minneman and he also does a parodie of rick gratton that is pretty funny. Its definitely worth the price of admission

[boombust]

Jens is the personal god of Ron Bushy (look him up), so you know he must be good.

[flammaster]

LOL Ron was a buddy of mine back in..no wait. Sorry Ron who?

(Inagadadavida baby)!

[iwokojance]

I just peed my pants. This is hilarious.

[cjcdrums]

LOLOL Look at the bass drum!!!!

[Sharpster7]

He was at soundfix to give an instructional live (and sign the dvds I guess too?) But does anyone actually have this dvd?

I know he's hilarious - check out his HBO shorts.

But this isn't laugh out loud funny, it's the 'let-your-friends-in-on-the-jo­ke-and-quote-it-forever-kinda-­funny'

[mccannisdown]

A friend of mine has it. It's pretty funny, but I don't think you'd want to watch it more than once.

[canman67]

He is Fred Arneson(sp?) from Saturday Night Live. It's a spoof.

[superjules]

This thing is a joke, right? There's no telling these days.

[Drummerthatismetal]

Yes.

Although, the person who plays the part, is a real drummer known throughout the drumming community. =]

[PerfandTear]

I saw this guy on Kimmel last night and I thought it was a joke. How funny!

[yazazen]

Jens is the best drummer alive today!

[TPaperstacks]

THIS RULES
