How To Play The Spoons

Well, that was the easiest instrument I've ever added to my kit.
...but how long will it take to become a virtuoso?

Not much expense in the way of equipment either! I have seen some pretty good spoon-players though, using fairly complex poly-rhythmics, double-spoons, etc. Often playing spoons will just be one more thing out of a "bag of tricks" used by an... informal-music percussionist. (That's not a bad way to put it!) His "thing" might include the spoons, a rub-board, sticks, shakers, broom-work, maybe even jews-harp or whatever. In the right genre and setting, things like that really can add to the music.
