Don't mix up noodling on a recording with noodling in front of an audience. If its live, the audience appreciates it, even if its just noodling, because they are part of a process. And there is a chance that you get inspired and put up some magic moments. Noodling on a record is just boring because its missing that "being part of a process" which is the most important one in the concert situation... Composing is much harder, you compete with Beethoven...;-) Compare listening to Greatful Dead on a bootleg (replace with your favorite noodles), and being there at the event...
