Brilliant info, thank you! It’s hot in Ireland atm, for a change 😂

Thank you a useful video 🤗🐻👍

I mean you could just tape it

i live in south east idaho and my drum can become bone dry in less then 10 mins from being over dry, definitely not ireland

Very nice style of teaching...I'm going to stay with you if your ' clarity and pragmatic' style is consisten. Thank you.

The Irish word for the tipper, cipín, should be pronounced chipeen.

Humidity can affect the drum in MINUTES. I went to a drumming circle last night in Colorado Springs. It had rained during the day. The tone was fine, and as i played it, it got higher. Weird. Then, as night came and the moon rose, it got lower again. I am told I need to tighten it, but it is calf skin, so it was an eye opener. I heard someone say shea butter helps, too.

I noticed when you played the bodhran you just put water on your left hand went against the back of the skin for a lower tone. When you played the one without the water you held the bodhran by the back brace or handle. Of course the sound will be higher.

All bull

Hi, thank you very much for this. I have only just started learning and this was extremely helpful.

I have a question. I have a tiny little bodhran. It's more of a souvenir, really. But it's about 6-8 inches in diameter. Is this a good one to practice with if I'm just learning the basics for now? Thanks, I look forward to watching your videos :)

Thank you for providing the answers to one of my greatest problems! Got to get me some conditioning cream as I am so tired of, every time I get my Bodhran out of the case, it sounding like a biscuit tin. :D
