165 bars at 155 BPM -- fast, and 4:15 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-28, hi-hat through bars 29-30, snare through bars 31-38, hi-hat through bars 39-50, snare through bars 51-59 and hi-hat through bars 60-65, and 9 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 31-37, 52-58 and 68-70, and 4 more places -- 20% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.
