If you make a "mistake" in a solo, play it again, louder, so everyone knows you meant it. Also, many times the "mistake" in a solo is your sub conscience trying to convince you not to play the stupid idea you were consciously trying to execute. Amazing how you listen to a live solo you taped a few days later, and realize the part where you "blew it", was the only interesting part of the whole thing! Then there's Miles Davis. fuckin Miles, it happened, therefore it isn't a mistake, because it happened dude, so you make it work in the moment. Perception is 9/10ths of the law!
