silence through bars 1-4, hi-hat through bars 5-12, ride through bars 13-20, hi-hat through bars 21-40, ride through bars 41-48 and hi-hat through bars 49-56, and 2 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 5-11, 21-23 and 33-39, and 2 more places -- 40.5% of every bar the kit plays. Learn that one and most of the song is already under your hands.

70 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 62 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
