I'm bored at home and need to learn some stuff besides PJ. Fun stuff that you would like to hear covered if you were hanging at your favorite spot. Or a song you think could be changed into an acoustic style.

    This is very true. Lots of Wilco stuff, Ryan Adams, the list goes on and on!

    there are some great australian acts with some good acoustic tunes, try Diesel: One More Time; hes on you tube and ultimate guitar, its a nice and easy E,A,B number, great to sing along to. also try Paul Kelly he has some great tracks. the best part is if you arent from the land of oz these types of songs will sound nice and original for you. Plus they are tried and tested; great songs.
