Scrump: at the risk of being seriously repetitive, I dont have the slightest desire to go back to things being 100% acoustic. Amplification is fine. I just wish that acoustic could be used to mean unamplified, which is what it used to mean. That would make the world a lot simpler.
I dont wish to change one bit of how people choose to play music. Sitting in my kitchen playing a few tunes, acoustic is fine. Playing on stage at Glastonbury, amplification is fine. I just think that a bit of precision in the words we use to describe things is often a good thing.
