100 bars at 178 BPM -- fast, and 2:15 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

snare through bars 1-7, hi-hat through bars 8-16, snare through bars 17-24, hi-hat through bars 25-32, snare through bars 33-35 and ride through bars 36-40, and 5 more changes after that.
