Learning the Bodhran

I've been asked many tips on how to play the Bodhran, so i decided to make a movie on how to play the bodhran. I wish i could have done a better job, but i hope this helps. If you would like another better movie, i can make another. Just send me comments

@XxOReillyxXx That's no American accent I've ever heard, it sounds Canadian.

Excellent, how long have you played? How long did it take to start playing competently enough to jump in with say.. A fiddler?

Oy... thx for your short lesson. I have tried to follow your tips. Buuut. ( There´s always a but ) Could you please record the view of that position I would look at my hand when I am playing the B.. That would be nice. I mean, you know how difficult the beginning is. If we had the look like you are following your hands, it could be better for understanding and following you moves.... Thank you anyway for your video... Peace, Joeseph

@XxOReillyxXx American? Try again. It says it right in his name:P I am also Canadian with an Irish background. Regardless, I dont see why it would matter where your from to play a bodhran.
