145 bars at 188 BPM -- fast, and 3:05 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

silence through bars 1-9, hi-hat through bars 10-71, toms through bars 72-73, hi-hat through bars 74-81, ride through bars 82-89 and snare through bars 90-109, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 11-16, 19-24 and 27-30, and 3 more places -- 22.1% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

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