169 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 4:14 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
54 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-2, hi-hat through bars 3-36, snare through bars 37-42, hi-hat through bars 43-48, snare through bars 49-54 and ride through bars 55-56, and 11 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 7-15, 58 and 62, and 2 more places -- 19.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
