59 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-33, ride through bars 34-41, hi-hat through bars 42-63, ride through bars 64-82, snare through bars 83-86 and hi-hat through bars 87-91, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 34-41, 59-64 and 68-73, and 1 more place -- 15.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
