207 bars at 155 BPM -- fast, and 5:21 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

hi-hat through bar 1, toms through bars 2-9, hi-hat through bars 10-15, toms through bars 16-17, hi-hat through bars 18-33 and snare through bars 34-41, and 14 more changes after that.
