THE BEAT

One bar, and 19% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 34-40, 42-48 and 69-75, and 3 more places -- 19% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

What do I need on the kit?

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