130 bars at 190 BPM -- fast, and 2:44 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
42 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, snare through bars 9-12, hi-hat through bars 13-32, snare through bars 33-36, hi-hat through bars 37-38 and snare through bars 39-44, and 14 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 17, 19 and 21, and 15 more places -- 23.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

42 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 31 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
130 bars, about 2:44 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 6 sittings, about 21 minutes each.
