Now i find it hard to utter a couple of words while i'm deep in a tune on my accordion but how the hell The Dubliners manage to cross play instruments is astonishing. Just take note on where each guys hand is.
I find I am able to talk to folk whilst accompanying on the guitar and can use full sentences if needs be, much as I am able to play and sing. I have found out recently however I just cant play and count though (even in my head) - as in I tried to count the amount of people in the session whilst in the middle of a set and singularly failed. I am guessing that there is too much maths going on in my head subconsciously as part of the playing that to add a head count to that is just impossible! :-S
