199 bars at 168 BPM -- fast, and 4:44 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-6, hi-hat through bars 7-8, snare through bars 9-14, hi-hat through bars 15-28, toms through bars 29-32 and hi-hat through bars 33-36, and 13 more changes after that.
