Practicing a BAT in a large room

As I re-read this post, I recognize my inadequacy at clearly stating my meaning. It is, however, the best I can do right now. A week of working with kids has probably taken whatever brain cells I may have and fried them beyond recognition.

I had a post ready for this thread, but hit the "Back" button. As I proofread it, I saw where I would, probably, piss off several people.

bloke "who has sanded on a rusty trailer all day getting it ready to paint, and is just too weary to try to deal with possibly trying to put out several 'virtual' grass fires...summary: 'Who cares?' "

Was all this over something I wrote? Do I need to re-read my post too? I did not proofread this time and might have expressed myself very poorly. I just prefer to work on music in a very big room with a high ceiling. I play in very dry spaces as well. Did I piss someone off? Sorry if I did.

I meant no reference to you, Wade. I apologize if it seemed so.

My school band room is made of LEGO bricks, so it eats up sound like Pac-Man eats dots.

I did get the [pretty enormous] auditorium to myself for a few minutes. Oh man, I felt like a giant.

Thanks for the responses so far. I am curious about what might have been said to piss off people. I would not have thought a discussion of acoustic effects on our noble instrument could be so contentious?
