156 bars at 164 BPM -- fast, and 3:48 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
51 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-36, snare through bars 37-40, hi-hat through bars 41-44, snare through bars 45-48 and ride through bars 49-64, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25-31, 65-67 and 69-71, and 5 more places -- 21.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
