The only time I ever sort of miss the "amp in the room" sound is when I'm playing by myself. When I'm playing with a band there is so much other stuff going on and half the time I'm hearing myself through the monitors anyhow so the pure amp sound is pretty much lost.
There are a couple magical things about blues/roots/classic rock type stuff with an open back cab though:
1) There is something more spacious on stage - the FOH sound isn't affected much.
2) Drummers hate a cranked open back cab
