Sound at a different venue will vary for lots of reasons. One big thing to take into consideration should be the wattage of your amp. Distortion tone (particularly) depends on how close you are to your amps maximum volume, on my cube 30x it sounds more crunchy and in your face at higher volumces. In a bigger room it will sound different as well, especially if you're outside. Even the smoothness of the walls has some effect
I'm never happy unless I can tweak my setup before I play anywhere new.
Onto your main question: Tone is a very broad term. Are you looking for a metal tone, blues tone, vintage tone etc?
EDIT: I didn't notice that this was in Kris's area, apologies if I'm being intrusive.
