140 bars at 155 BPM -- fast, and 3:37 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
68 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-25, hi-hat through bars 26-42, silence through bars 43-45, hi-hat through bars 46-86, kick and crashes through bars 87-94 and toms through bars 95-104, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-5, 8 and 10-16, and 2 more places -- 16.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
