222 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 5:13 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
78 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
ride through bars 1-20, hi-hat through bars 21-40, ride through bars 41-49, snare through bars 50-66, toms through bars 67-69 and hi-hat through bars 70-78, and 9 more changes after that.
