138 bars at 177 BPM -- fast, and 3:07 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
79 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-11, hi-hat through bars 12-36, kick and crashes through bars 37-50, toms through bars 51-56, hi-hat through bars 57-102 and toms through bars 103-109, and 2 more changes after that.
