101 bars of 4/4 at 140 BPM, about 2:52 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for.
kick and crashes through bar 1, snare through bars 2-9, hi-hat through bars 10-25, snare through bars 26-38, hi-hat through bars 39-42 and snare through bars 43-62, and 3 more changes after that.
