Ceili CD's for practice

Now you will know why I lurk.
I consider myself mainly a mandolin player ( although I will never win any contests) and play a bit of guitar (almost exclusively DAGDAD) and I have an infatuation for brackets(), but I am also a closet Bodhran player.
I like to use ceili band CD's to practise along to but I'm very much aware that the feel is different to that at sessions. Can anybody reccomend something better to do with my bodhran?

""(almost exclusively DAGDAD) ""

And my speilings not very gud. Although it was almost dadgad and dagdad would be quite exclusive :-)

No I can't suggest anything to do with goatskins as Bonfire night has just past.
P.S. DAGG might be a suitable session tuning

Why the Pavlovian reaction to the word "bodhran"?
