145 bars of 4/4 at a walking 80 BPM, 7:15 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.

silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-12, toms through bars 13-16, snare through bars 17-20, toms through bars 21-24 and snare through bars 25-37, and 16 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-11, 45-49 and 51, and 8 more places -- 25% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
