 >> i want to get a good hand snare drum

Rhythm Tech makes a cool and very portable snare - the Laptop.  
Basically a pretensioned head on a rim with an enclosed snare attached. 
A sturdy case comes with it, too.   I keep one of these and a shaker 
with my acoustic guitar gig bag for when I need to enlist audience 
participation.
