I find it very difficult, I used to sing and play in one place and this guy always tried to accompny me on his guitar, didn't matter if I was picking or strumming and he didn't often get it right either. In the end I gave up and never went back. (It was his problem , he did it to others as well as me, but he was part of the "local group" and that was it. If it's a bodrahn player though get out a bloody big Bowie knife and say.............. Eric
