254 bars at 250 BPM -- fast, and 4:04 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
77 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-7, toms through bars 8-9, hi-hat through bars 10-15, snare through bars 16-17 and hi-hat through bars 18-26, and 48 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 33-38, 41-46 and 49-54, and 10 more places -- 15.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
