Many a player has been drawn to distraction by the three chord wander sitting in a corner banging away like a headless chicken. As a whistle player its is very satisfying to be backed up by a good guitar player , drummer, or stringed instrument. Not only does it enhance the overall tune but selective playing on a guitar, for exapmle, can turn a dull tune into a cracker !! .contempment is wealth...stick at it brother !!!!!

If you find your getting bored, try openning your gullet for an oul song. Good or bad its a welcome addition to any session (provided it's not Danny Boy!)
