Drop C

Our guitarist plays in Drop C (C,G,C,F).
I used to play in C# for years before I joining this band.
Playing down another halfstep on all 4 strings wouldn't be a problem but getting used to playing a droptuning was and still is a pain to get used to.

Can I play in C( C,F,A#D#) and not upset the dynamics/tone of things. I haven't clue,don't know my notes,scales and have always played by ear.:hmm:

If you are comfortable with transcribing everything it shouldn't be a problem.
