140 bars at 166 BPM -- fast, and 3:17 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
64 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 bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-33, snare through bars 34-40, toms through bars 41-42, hi-hat through bars 43-73 and toms through bars 74-75, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 2-7, 15-16 and 18-21, and 8 more places -- 19.3% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

166 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.
64 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 52 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

crash, 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.
