247 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 5:38 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

kick and crashes through bars 1-3, snare through bars 4-25, silence through bars 26-40, ride through bars 41-52, snare through bars 53-56 and ride through bars 57-64, and 21 more changes after that.
