Questions

What BPM is Uncle Pat?

100 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Uncle Pat hard to play on drums?

53 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 35 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

78 bars, about 3:07 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 4 sittings, about 28 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 Uncle Pat?

6 fills to learn, played 14 times: bars 4, 12, 16, 20, 28, 32 and 8 more.
