Is Fall In Waterfall hard to play on drums?

66 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

What do I need on the kit?

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