What the course does

It cuts the song into 25 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- B -- 5 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  2. Through Part E -- 1 exercise, about 15 minutes.
  3. Through Part E -- 2 exercises, about 21 minutes. Open above.
  4. Through Part J -- 2 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  5. Through Part E and Part J -- 3 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  6. Through Part J -- 2 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  7. Bars 147-168 -- 5 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  8. Through the Outro and the Outro 2 -- 4 exercises, about 19 minutes.
  9. and 2 more sittings after that.

85 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth 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.

Is Judas Priest hard to play on drums?

47 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 25 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

What do I need on the kit?

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