Help! My bodhran is ill!

[Meaghen Mac Laren (B. Aboussafy)]

Thanks everyone for your responses. I'm going to give the lanolin and 
saddle soap thing a try. With any luck it will do the trick since the 
tone of my drum is extremely high and the skin tension is so tight that I 
worry about splitting all the time. I mist water onto the back of the 
skin before and during playing because there would otherwise be no slack to 
use my other hand for cool tension effects.
