162 bars at 165 BPM -- fast, and 3:56 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, floor tom and kick.

hi-hat through bars 1-16, kick and crashes through bars 17-18, hi-hat through bars 19-50, toms through bars 51-58, hi-hat through bars 59-118 and snare through bars 119-126, and 1 more change after that.
