138 bars of 4/4 at a walking 83 BPM, 6:38 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-5, ride through bars 6-7, hi-hat through bars 8-38, snare through bars 39-40, toms through bars 41-43 and hi-hat through bars 44-73, and 7 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 44-56 -- 10% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 43 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
