256 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 6:01 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
64 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-30, snare through bars 31-33, hi-hat through bars 34-63, kick and crashes through bars 64-75, snare through bars 76-103 and hi-hat through bars 104-121, and 14 more changes after that.
