213 bars at 168 BPM -- fast, and 5:04 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

kick and crashes through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-6, toms through bars 7-8, hi-hat through bars 9-25, kick and crashes through bars 26-29 and hi-hat through bars 30-47, and 21 more changes after that.
