Questions

What BPM is You Will Never Be One Of Us?

230 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.

Is You Will Never Be One Of Us hard to play on drums?

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 50 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

53 bars, about 0:55 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 17 exercises over 7 sittings, about 23 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

1 fill to learn, played 8 times: bars 30, 31, 32, 33, 42, 43 and 2 more.
