Don't know about you guys, but when me and my friends jam, I like to just scat during akward moments when I don't know what to do.

Do any of you do this? Or am I just a little ****ed up?

Scat?
Do you mean when singing you mess up the lyrics and replace it with gibberish or a slur till you get your vocal footing back?

Skit-skat-beebadee-bee-bop-doo. That kind of thing?

It's kind of funny seeing people do that, but it can be pretty cool, at times.

That's kinda how i write songs. i write a cool riff, and kinda say random stuff like kinda scat, and replace lyrics with the scat stuff. Like with the same sound. Like if I scatted "doo soo so wih shoo" I would say "to do no with shoes" or something

Scatting is also when you imitate an instrument's sound, like clarinet for example in jazz.
I think scatting sounds cool, and shows you are into the music you're playing

i *wish* i could scat, but it's something i've never really had opportunity or confidence to try. you should try putting it in some of your songs if it sounds good!

scatting is absolutely wicked. I can't do it well, but love hearing it.
