When I am practicing songs from jazz band at home, I do solos for most every piece that are improvised, and occasionally, I will go off in tangents and do endless solos without considering how long the solo is supposed to be. Regardless of how long I do the actual solos, every time I make up a solo in my head for a song I've recently learned while mentally singing to myself, the solos are endless. I also like to experiment with mental solo session, trying at least one different thing time that is a little more outstanding.
Bottom line: Losing yourself in solos and other improv.=makes me happy. It's where a lot of my passion during the boring school days go.
