151 bars at 162 BPM -- fast, and 3:44 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
95 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-6, hi-hat through bars 7-23, snare through bars 24-31, hi-hat through bars 32-51, snare through bars 52-59 and hi-hat through bars 60-106, and 2 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 37-39, 41-42 and 65-67, and 6 more places -- 13.9% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

162 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
95 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 88 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
151 bars, about 3:44 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 46 exercises over 18 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
