THE BEAT

One bar, and 12% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 9, 11-13 and 15, and 8 more places -- 11.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

Questions

What BPM is Poor Boxer Shorts?

168 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is Poor Boxer Shorts hard to play on drums?

53 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 33 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

159 bars, about 3:46 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 58 exercises over 15 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

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.

How many fills are in Poor Boxer Shorts?

16 fills to learn, played 26 times: bars 19, 24, 40, 48, 64, 65 and 20 more.
