222 bars at 160 BPM -- fast, and 5:33 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.

snare through bars 3-18, hi-hat through bars 19-27, snare through bars 28-30, ride through bars 31-39, snare through bars 40-42 and hi-hat through bars 43-54, and 20 more changes after that.
