I primarily do my own songs and when I did gig it was just me and an acoustic (miced) doing my own material. So I need nothing other than a guitar and my voice. I never have been one to sit down to actually practice, I just play music. In doing so you do improve (hopefully), but I never have thought of it as 'practice'.
I hate playing with any backing tracks, etc., for one thing they are someone else's songs, not your own, and they are also someone else's arrangement that never changes.
