Questions

What BPM is The Price Is Wrong?

220 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is The Price Is Wrong hard to play on drums?

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 27 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

216 bars, about 3:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 82 exercises over 21 sittings, about 29 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

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

How many fills are in The Price Is Wrong?

19 fills to learn, played 48 times: bars 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 42 more.
