66 bars of 4/4 at a walking 85 BPM, 3:06 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bar 1, snare through bars 2-5, ride through bars 6-11, snare through bars 12-14, ride through bars 15-20 and snare through bars 21-36, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 39-49 -- 17.2% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 29 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would.

85 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
85 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 78 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
66 bars, about 3:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 29 exercises over 9 sittings, about 26 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid 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.
