When it comes to chops......

[shall176]

Its been deated to death about chops vs pocket etc....but when it is your time.....I am interested to know...what do you strive to do with your fills, solos etc?

DO you focus on speed, flash with twirling etc, continue to play an extension of whatever composition was being played and not really do much more, or do you try to pull out something different or abstract etc. 

Thanks
