141 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 3:19 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 2-35, silence through bars 36-39, kick and crashes through bars 40-42, hi-hat through bars 43-97, toms through bars 98-99 and hi-hat through bars 100-123, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 2-8, 26-28 and 30, and 8 more places -- 21.1% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
