THE BEAT

One bar, and 20% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 22-24, 26-28 and 58-60, and 3 more places -- 20.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

Questions

What BPM is LunchTime?

131 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 LunchTime hard to play on drums?

63 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 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

99 bars, about 3:00 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 42 exercises over 13 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor 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 LunchTime?

10 fills to learn, played 17 times: bars 1, 11, 21, 25, 29, 37 and 11 more.
