Killer version of that song.

Why would I want to listen to a hard rock song played on acoustic guitars? It wasn't a song meant for acoustic guitars. They have any number of other songs that would be fine acoustic but that is not one of them. That just sounds like they were bored and having a laugh.

Always cool to hear artists "unplugged" to see if they really have the chops.

Plus, in this case, it was obviously foreplay......

No it isn't unless their sound can be translated to acoustic, otherwise it's just a self-indulgent gimmick. The idea that acoustic somehow makes music more legitimate is why anybody cared about hair bands doing MTV Unplugged nonsense.

Or maybe it's just a lot of fun? Having "been there, done that" I can attest that it's a blast for all involved.

I can believe it's fun for the artists who are doing something different, but it's clearly not a blast for listeners with common sense.

Says the man who showers before he ****s..

It's just fun. Back east, during the 'large group of friends' party days, I'd have been strung up if I didn't show up with an acoustic.

Snapshot: a few dozen folks, all sufficiently liquored and budded up, sitting around a campfire and belting out Hotel California at the top of their lungs while I strum the **** out of my guitar trying to keep up with the volume. Song ends and everyone is smiling and happy.

Good, simple stuff.

Because you're white enough to think that you can end racism by voting for Obama.
