Did it years ago at the University (one of them) I attended, and it worked quite well.
Obviously a cement block stairwell was “live”, and two stories tall, so the result was great.
It was really the only option at the time (circa 1976), love a “wet” mix!

Good idea, Tony - it reminds me of Jimmy Page recording Bonzo.  I guess I could find an empty grain silo somewhere around here...

Put a great mic in a stairwell with a speaker, get’s a unique sound, but is a pain in the butt.
Affordable though.
