Questions

What BPM is Fake Blood?

159 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Fake Blood hard to play on drums?

74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 67 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

88 bars, about 2:12 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 45 exercises over 14 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Fake Blood?

18 fills to learn, played 32 times: bars 5, 9, 13, 15, 16, 19 and 26 more.
