102 bars at 175 BPM -- fast, and 2:20 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
92 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-32, ride through bars 33-35, hi-hat through bars 36-60, ride through bars 61-63, hi-hat through bars 64-88 and ride through bars 89-91, and 1 more change after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 9-23, 25-32 and 37-39, and 9 more places -- 61.8% of every bar the kit plays. Learn that one and the song is very nearly finished.

92 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 73 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
