I viewed this post on the awesome musician blog Hypebot.com, and I really liked it. Byrne talks about how the place music is written and performed can impact how the music sounds. Back in the day I was in a band that practiced in a tiny garage, but we had the loudest guitar and drums you could imagine. I had to scream right into the microphone to hear myself over them. It sounded great in practice, but was a terrible idea at venues with good sound systems.
I wonder how much our practice space impacted our music.
