What do you do when you ain't got your piano player and you need to fill a 32-bar solo?
You scat.
That's what I did, Last Night at Band Camp...

This is a diary of the band,

About the WALTER MITTYS
slatts is an incurable "bandoholic."
After being a loyal member in a number of bands—until each officially broke up—he put one of his own together.
Jim joined this band.
Later, Sonia did, too.
Then that band ended. slatts joined another. He met Paul. This band "didn't end" but slatts left.
He started another band with Jim and Sonia. When Paul left "that other band," he joined slatts' new band, too.
They called themselves,
the Walter Mittys.

I think you should revise this to read: "What do you do when you ain't got your piano player and you need to fill a 32-bar solo AND YOU'VE SIPPED A COUPLE OF JACKS BEFORE REHEARSAL?"

Oh, do you think alcohol had something to do with that?
