169 bars at 190 BPM -- fast, and 3:33 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.
55 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bar 1, snare through bars 2-18, ride through bars 19-25, snare through bars 26-60, silence through bars 61-69 and hi-hat through bars 70-76, and 4 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 3, 5 and 7, and 29 more places -- 29.2% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.
