347 bars at 190 BPM -- fast, and 7:18 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
64 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how many notes a second it asks for.
toms through bars 1-2, hi-hat through bars 3-43, snare through bars 44-49, toms through bars 50-51, hi-hat through bars 52-67 and snare through bars 68-74, and 18 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 10-15, 26-28 and 30, and 19 more places -- 27.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
