snare through bars 1-9, hi-hat through bars 10-14, snare through bars 15-19, hi-hat through bars 20-36, kick and crashes through bars 37-40 and snare through bars 41-43, and 27 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 45-47, 49-50 and 57-58, and 10 more places -- 13% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
