162 bars of 6/4 -- not four -- at 190 BPM, 4:36 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
36 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
hi-hat through bars 1-16, ride through bars 17-24, hi-hat through bars 25-48, ride through bars 49-56, hi-hat through bars 57-72 and ride through bars 73-80, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 2-3, 6-7 and 10-11, and 5 more places -- 14.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
