Cable network VH1 had a show called "Unplugged" where artists played their hits on acoustic instruments. If Curt Corbin and Eric Clapton can do it, why not you? Successful artists adapt to their audience.

In the instance you cited, you will not be playing for your traditional audience that follows you around from gig to gig. Instead you will be playing for an audience that has no expectations about what you will play. Nothing to loose and a lot to gain. If nothing else you will gain the experience of playing for a non traditional audience.

Have you ever watched the original Blues Brother movie with Dan Ackroyd and John Belushi? Remember the scene where the band was playing at a country bar? One of the hottest rock groups of all time gave their all playing D-I-V-O-R-C-E and the Theme from Rawhide. They adapted to their audience.
