Questions

What BPM is Linkin Park?

99 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 Linkin Park hard to play on drums?

58 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 40 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

83 bars, about 3:21 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 24 exercises over 6 sittings, about 28 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in Linkin Park?

5 fills to learn, played 9 times: bars 13, 33, 62, 66, 70, 74 and 3 more.
