78 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 1:43 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
83 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for.
ride through bars 1-11, hi-hat through bars 12-51 and snare through bars 52-78.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 12-14, 16-18 and 20-22 -- 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.

83 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 68 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
