I've gotta go along with Ella on that one. If ti's somebody that I know can play, and is sober, thenyes. Otherwise usually, no> I spent an obcene amount of $$ for my bodhran, because I really like Albert's drums and i've a good deal of time on it before even thinking about playing sessions. What's more, the bodhran is one of those instruments that people think posession confers an instant ability to play! I don't POUND on my drum and I don't want anyone else to. If nothing else it disrupts the session.
