44 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 34 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

What do I need on the kit?

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

14 fills to learn, played 23 times: bars 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 24 and 17 more.
