Re: "playing outside" - yes, I know what you're talking about here - but it also reminds me of a famous picture of Albert Collins playing OUTSIDE the Bottom Line, that late lamented club in Manhattan. He must have had a long cord! (I don't think they used wireless too much back then...)
Playing outside the chord changes? I think of it as spice. It can add a lot to a meal, but you don't eat a plateful of paprika, do you? LOL Dissonance is cool if used right! But soon or later you gotta resolve..... or it ain't music.. at least that's what Leonard Bernstein thought. I do have to say that some music is so bland and generic I can hardly listen to it, and part of the problem is lack of harmonic spice... or rhythmic, but that's another topic!
