buckethead

Some people say that he is the best... Some say he is a cheat. I think he is the best. His killswitch only makes the music sound better. In some ways it may be even harder to us it. But anyway I will stop at that. What are your thoughts?

yes, I would have to agree. I was like wow. That can not be slash then I was like oh yeah buckethead is with them now. I think they kicked him out after release though. I think they did that because he was not consistant.

Yeah he's gone and Ron Thal(BumbleFoot?)is in the band to cover Bucket's stuff.This dude is an amazing player as well and don't get me wrong i dig slash but he's just not in the same ballpark as these cats are.

I think they may have kicked him out for other reasons like they did slash. But alot of people say herman lee is the best but I think he sucks he can't even play his stuff live.

Buckethead is really damn good on bass, especially slap/funk.

Bucket head is quite the enigma. Has anyone ever seen him without the mask and get up? How long can he keep up this mask thing? Doesn't his face get awful hot behind that mask?

Is he the V for Vendetta guy?

He is the bassist in the film "Electric Apricot: The quest for Festeroo". I've heard

No actually:

I think he is the guy way in the back. It looks like him minus the make-up. I think I will see him at a week-end music fest at Nelsons Ledge in Ohio in July. I love this quote from Wikipedia by Ozzy about Buckethead...its just funny.

I tried out that Buckethead guy. I met with him and asked him to work with me, but only if he got rid of the fucking bucket. So I came back a bit later, and he's wearing this green fucking Martian's-hat thing! I said, 'Look, just be yourself.' He told me his name was Brian, so I said that's what I'd call him. He says, 'No one calls me Brian except my mother.' So I said, 'Pretend I'm your mum then!' I haven't even got out of the room and I'm already playing fucking mind games with the guy. What happens if one day he's gone and there's a note saying, 'I've been beamed up'? Don't get me wrong, he's a great player. He plays like a motherfucker.[24]

Buckethead f-ing rules, man....he's gotta be one of the best guitarists I've heard ever....the guy if just unreal!!
Also...how cool is it that in Praxis he got Bootsy Collins (who is also freaking awesome) to play bass for him??

Dark Soul · Post by **Dark Soul** » Monday Jul 27, 2009

Buckethead is beyond awesome. Wicked skills and a totally unique style. I want to kill him and eat him so I can absorb his powers!

Bootsy Collins is the coolest human on Earth. I bet that guy shits ice cubes.
