Questions

What BPM is Another Day Comes?

68 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is Another Day Comes hard to play on drums?

79 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 42 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

168 bars, about 7:39 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 49 exercises over 17 sittings, about 25 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 Another Day Comes?

13 fills to learn, played 22 times: bars 20, 43, 44, 51, 59, 82 and 16 more.
