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

93 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 80 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, 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 18 times: bars 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 16 and 12 more.
