I'm not sure, but didn't Springsteen do one? And Bon Jovi, if memory serves (and it may not...)

"Unplugged" was a great idea, but as you say, using electric guitars and saying it was acoustic ain't the same thing. Mind you, some bands should have not only unplugged, but packed up, returned to shop and entered banking or something...

Thanks for pulling the stake out of this thread's heart, by the way, Big Ears : just when you thought it was safe to open the door.... BWA HA HA HA!!!!
