155 bars of 4/4 at 154 BPM, about 4:02 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
60 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how fine the subdivision is.
ride through bars 1-6, toms through bars 7-14, hi-hat through bars 15-22, ride through bars 23-28, hi-hat through bars 29-34 and toms through bars 35-36, and 31 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 23-24, 43-44 and 47-53, and 5 more places -- 13.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
