136 bars at 163 BPM -- fast, and 3:20 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

toms through bars 1-8, hi-hat through bars 9-24, snare through bars 25-44, hi-hat through bars 45-66, silence through bars 67-79 and snare through bars 80-87, and 9 more changes after that.
