65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-16, hi-hat through bars 17-38, toms through bars 39-46, snare through bars 47-49, hi-hat through bars 50-85 and snare through bars 86-89, and 3 more changes after that.

65 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 54 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
