158 bars at 162 BPM -- fast, and 3:54 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-7, hi-hat through bars 8-39, ride through bars 40-47, hi-hat through bars 48-63, ride through bars 64-71 and snare through bars 72-78, and 7 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 24-26, 30-34 and 38, and 9 more places -- 24.7% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
