140 bars at 205 BPM -- fast, and 2:42 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bar 1, snare through bars 2-22, hi-hat through bars 23-25, snare through bars 26-57, hi-hat through bars 58-60 and snare through bars 61-72, and 4 more changes after that.
