As far as accuracy goes, the bad would be that you are hearing the sound of your room - or some jumbled mess - in addition to the recording venue. The worst would be if you're only hearing your room, outside of audio with the greatest amount of reverb. If you are being transported to the recording venue, you should not hear your room, as any room reverb should be enforcing the reverb of the recording.
