Questions

What BPM is Tavern?

120 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.

Is Tavern hard to play on drums?

63 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 57 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

117 bars, about 3:54 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 39 exercises over 12 sittings, about 25 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in Tavern?

7 fills to learn, played 8 times: bars 16, 32, 38, 48, 55, 56 and 2 more.
