I wonder if there's a similar name for a type of (usually) sax player at jazz jams who after you've called out the tune and said 'I'll take the head', meaning I'll play the melody ON MY OWN, plays along anyway in a vague attempt at unison with their horn pointing straight at your ear so you can't hear a damn thing and completely drowning you out.

Yeah, we call them a**holes. Unless you're really into avant garde jazz stuff, in which case you call it "totally groovy, man". :)
