I got a feeling the response is going to be to practice in an environment most like what you'll be performing in.

I love to practice in as large a space as possible. I definitely notice I tend to close up my sound in smaller rooms and open up more in larger rooms. Unfortunately, I don't have much larger than a standard size living room to practice in these days.

When I was at Ohio State, I remember people would sneak up into the Stadium at night and playing. It was pretty cool -- sit in some far corner of a 90,000 seat stadium and play to the stars.

I don't know if they allow that anymore, but it was neat.

Heck, sit out on the deck and serenade the neighborhood. If my neighbor can sit on his front porch and sing with his guitar all summer long....
