142 bars of 6/4 -- not four -- at 71 BPM, 11:50 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
32 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it.
silence through bars 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-58, ride through bars 59-72, snare through bars 73-96 and silence through bars 97-142.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 17-23, 25-27 and 39-45, and 2 more places -- 28.3% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

71 BPM, in 6/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
32 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 29 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
