208 bars at 190 BPM -- fast, and 4:23 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.

The fills

6 fills to learn, played 29 times: bars 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 23 more.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 37 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- H -- 4 exercises, about 32 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- J -- 3 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- M -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  4. Bars 41-72 -- 2 exercises, about 27 minutes. Open above.
  5. Bars 37-49 -- 5 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  6. Bars 45-73 -- 6 exercises, about 20 minutes.
  7. Bars 85-100 -- 5 exercises, about 34 minutes.
  8. Through Part Q and the Chorus 5 -- 5 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  9. and 3 more sittings after that.

190 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 44 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

208 bars, about 4:23 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 37 exercises over 11 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
