141 bars of 3/4 -- not four -- at 70 BPM, 6:03 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
47 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how fine the subdivision is.
toms through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-46, snare through bars 47-49, hi-hat through bars 50-58, ride through bars 59-61 and hi-hat through bars 62-69, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 59-61, 78-79 and 83-84, and 3 more places -- 29.1% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

47 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how fine the subdivision is. The beat itself is 19 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
