82 bars of 4/4 at a walking 80 BPM, 4:06 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
87 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-12, silence through bars 13-15, hi-hat through bars 16-52, ride through bars 53-56 and snare through bars 57-59, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 25-31, 45-51 and 67-69, and 1 more place -- 28.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

80 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
87 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 70 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
82 bars, about 4:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 30 exercises over 10 sittings, about 25 minutes each.
