ride through bars 1-8, snare through bars 9-15, ride through bars 16-24, toms through bars 25-27, ride through bars 28-60 and toms through bars 61-67, and 24 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-2, 5-6 and 12, and 23 more places -- 23.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
