Inspired by the recent Thurston solo performance of Schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia, Tom Violence and Starpower sound pretty good on an acoustic guitar. I tried some other ones with mixed success (and tuning the guitar can be a real pain), any other suggestions?

The Dripping Dream is fun to play on acoustic. I switch from thurtston to lee to jim when I play it. A lot of great chords in that song

My standard acoustic sonic tunes..

Stones
New Hampshire
Sunday
Hoarfrost
Hits of Sunshine
Dripping Dream
Incinerate


Pretty much anything from A Thousand Leaves or Sonic Nurse, these albums rely more on "chords" than other material, and use tunings more readily playable on an acoustic. That, and most of the songs after 1999 were written on acoustics so they translate well

Expressway To Yr Skull works out pretty well.
