When a stoner in your band improvises your music subconsciously, according to what the weed is telling his brain to do.

Improv Everywhere

A practically joke group based in New York, America. They pull of harmless stunts that they call missions. There acts include multiple actors called agents. The group was founded in 2001 by Charlie Todd and there slogan is "We Cause Scenes". They go out and pull pranks such as No Pants where people ride the subway with no trousers. Frozen Grand Central where 207 agents froze in the subway for 5 minuets then just carry on as normal. Ted's Birthday when they chose a random stranger and threw him a Birthday Party in a New York bar. Anton Chekhov was another one where an agent pretended to be a famous Russian play write who died over a century ago, he did a reading and signed some books, people believed him. The Moebius was when a small group of agents gathered in Costa Coffee and replayed the same scene every 5 minuets for an hour. Best Buy was an occasion when a group of 80 agents came into a shop called Best Buy dressed exactly the same as the shop staff, if asked if they worked at the shop they would say no but they would answer questions for customers. They are a group designed to go out much like a flash mob and amuse commuters.

Charlie Todd: Now this year we are gathered here as Improv Everywhere to take off our pants on the subway so anyone who isn't here to take off your pants your in the wrong place.
*laughing*

Dude 1: Hey, did you see that bunch of weirdos ridding the subway with no pants yesterday.
Dude 2: Yeh, they there were like, well odd.

Lowe's Home Improvement

The epitome of ass-kissery. As soon as you walk into a Lowe's, your ass saturated with the spit of every employee that crosses your path; but it is not their fault, because it is what they have been constantly told to do every day. Lowe's is built upon the model of "excellent, excruciatingly-paranoid, money-pinching, annoying, ass-kissing, customer-focus". The best thing to do when you see a "red vest" is to cut a corner and run. These people are already stressed enough with the dumbass questions that get flung at them every day so one more question is just one more reason for them to eat a bullet.

Customer walks in Lowe's:

"HI! BILLY MAYS HERE WITH Lowe's Home Improvement WAREHOUSE! WE HAVE LOTS OF ITEMS TO HELP YOUR EVERY NEED FOR EVERY SITUATION! HOW MAY WE BE OF SERVICE TO YOU TODAY SIR OR MA'AM???"

Customer: Holy fucking ass crackers! Can I not look at the fucking power tools without being bombarded by damn service? Fuck this I'm going to Home Depot where people leave me the hell alone!

improvisation

To make something up on the spot.

Improvisation is common in jazz music, when a musician makes up a solo spontaneously, as opposed to playing a written solo.

Sometimes a group of musicians will completely improvise an entire song. This is done almost exclusively by jazz musicians.

All forms of art can be improvised. Art that is improvised may be called "free" or "freestyle", like "free poetry".

A popular form of improvisation is rapping, or flowing.

Miles Davis was a master of improvisation.
