132 bars at 178 BPM -- fast, and 2:57 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
48 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, snare through bars 5-13, silence through bars 14-36, snare through bars 37-52, hi-hat through bars 53-67 and snare through bars 68-92, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-11, 37-43 and 69-75, and 6 more places -- 28.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
