THE BEAT

One bar, and 4% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 152, 154 and 158, and 5 more places -- 4.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

Questions

What BPM is Someday?

210 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.

Is Someday hard to play on drums?

92 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 66 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

190 bars, about 3:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 87 exercises over 34 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Someday?

4 fills to learn, played 6 times: bars 1, 2, 7, 12, 13 and 78.
