Questions

What BPM is misery?

130 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 misery hard to play on drums?

33 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 14 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

17 bars, about 0:30 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 4 exercises over 2 sittings, about 16 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in misery?

1 fill to learn, played 2 times: bars 2 and 3.
