Questions

What BPM is All Out Life?

105 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is All Out Life hard to play on drums?

94 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 63 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

152 bars, about 5:43 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 50 exercises over 15 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in All Out Life?

13 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 17, 25, 37, 45, 47, 49 and 26 more.
