113 bars at 168 BPM -- fast, and 2:41 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

snare through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-9, snare through bars 10-25, hi-hat through bars 26-71, toms through bars 72-73 and hi-hat through bars 74-92, and 4 more changes after that.
