Or you could order a drummers poly or metal brush from the Vader drum stick company. The one I have allows the brush to recede into the handle. I do not recommend the metal brushes as they leave marks (kind of like pencil marks) each time you strike the head (unless you've got a plastic head, which is what they're normally used on). Good luck! |

How do you play it? Do you sneak up behind the bodhran and push it over? We need to know these things... Cheers Dave the Gnome |

Just think how much damage she could have done if she had a bodhrán at the time. *bg* Glad she wasn't focused on traditional music. She might of accused the uilleann pipes of being drug paraphenalia.
