hi-hat through bars 1-32, snare through bars 33-55, hi-hat through bars 56-57, snare through bars 58-59, hi-hat through bars 60-61 and snare through bars 62-63, and 11 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 106-108, 110-112 and 114-116, and 1 more place -- 10% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
