126 bars at 158 BPM -- fast, and 3:11 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

silence through bars 1-5, kick and crashes through bars 6-8, snare through bars 9-18, hi-hat through bars 19-24, snare through bars 25-32 and hi-hat through bars 33-40, and 7 more changes after that.
