128 bars at 165 BPM -- fast, and 3:39 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-3, snare through bars 4-19, hi-hat through bars 20-27, snare through bars 28-37, hi-hat through bars 38-39 and snare through bars 40-41, and 8 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 4-19 -- 15.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
