117 bars of 4/4 at 146 BPM, about 3:12 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
89 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-20, ride through bars 21-28, hi-hat through bars 29-36, ride through bars 37-53 and hi-hat through bars 54-76, and 2 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-20, 29-36 and 69-76 -- 27.4% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 22 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would.

89 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 84 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
117 bars, about 3:12 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 22 exercises over 7 sittings, about 26 minutes each.
