103 bars at 177 BPM -- fast, and 1:58 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
91 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for.
hi-hat through bars 1-8, kick and crashes through bars 9-12, hi-hat through bars 13-28, ride through bars 29-36, hi-hat through bars 37-52 and ride through bars 53-60, and 1 more change after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-7, 13-19 and 21-27, and 2 more places -- 29.7% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
