Any views on "percussion" at acoustic sessions? At nearly all of the sessions I've been to, there's been some sort of percussion - usually a bodhran, and occasionally one of those wooden seaty-beaty things that you sit on and bang with your hands (don't know what they're called but they can make a great sound).

I used to do a bit of drumming years ago, and was contemplating getting a bit of jug-band-type kit together - perhaps a washboard, blocks/skulls, hit-hat, even a small drum. Just enough to back up the sessions now and then without getting in the way.

Anyone do this?
