Is this a good idea? I’ve never done it but seen many photos and films (The Doors, Paul McCartney) and read that Bjork recorded live in a club’s toilets. It intrigues me but I imagine the reverberation being too much.

We’ve recorded some percussion in the bathroom (not vox). A tambourin and wood block. The attack and slap-back reverb of the block was amazing. The tambourine was almost unusable but with some tight eq we added it as a double track to a flatter room recording of the tambourine and it added a nice fizzle.
Definitely worth an experiment day and as @jimmybrookes says, it’s the fun part of recording. We don’t get to experiment too much.
