https://youtube.com/w/Buckethead?v=jXxl71OSnTE

doesn't seem to be any pics of him unmasked either

Grapesoda · 01-19-2009, 08:56 PM

he's pretty cool

d-null · 01-19-2009, 08:57 PM

here is a great Ozzy quote about Buckethead:

"In an interview with Revolver, Ozzy Osbourne stated that he had offered to have Buckethead play guitar in his band at Ozzfest. Ozzy quickly changed his mind after meeting with him, and realizing that Buckethead would not remove his costume in order to be accepted by Ozzy, said:

"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.""

It must get so hot playing with that mask and bucket on his head. He is very talented and extremely weird. lol

Spunky · 01-19-2009, 09:23 PM

Dudes got some decent skills

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 01-19-2009, 09:31 PM

Ya should have read what Axle said about em. Certainly not as upbeat.

Buckethead is awesome but I kinda do think he lacks discipline in the ways of actually playing a song the way it should be played. He never plays the same way twice and alot of his stuff is improvised.

Doesnt mean he is bad, infact it makes him a better player than most I think.

Far-L · 01-19-2009, 10:31 PM

I saw him with Les Claypool's "Bucket of Brains" band and was truly amazed. (Les, Bernie Worell, Buckethead, say no more, truly phenomenal) Fuck what those old junkies have to say about him - What would Ozzy have said if someone told him to go easy on the eye make-up and the Devil crap? And Axel? Whatever. Anyone who takes that long to make a bland record should be the last person criticizing someone like Buckethead whose musicality pours forth in buckets...

geedub · 01-19-2009, 10:34 PM

i seen him once, playing with brain one of the guys who drummed with primus. it was pretty damn good.

MarkTiarra · 01-19-2009, 10:37 PM

He plays what he wants for his own enjoyment and if other people dig it, so be it.. if not, so be it. I really respect that and appreciate his skills too.

Primus drummer "Brain" and bass player Les Claypool plus keyboardist Worell from PFunk and Buckethead on guitar.

Manowar · 01-19-2009, 11:17 PM

im listening to siege engine right now

tranza · 01-20-2009, 06:58 AM

He plays very well!!

HorseShit · 01-20-2009, 07:04 AM

good guitarist

Joe BrainCash · 01-20-2009, 07:10 AM

He's got skills all right. But he doesn't have Slash's soul. you can tell by listenning to the last GNR. Oh, and it's AXL, not Axel ;)

JayDeeZee · 01-20-2009, 07:32 AM

He played with a GNR cover band at Rock and Roll heaven here in Toronto. It was a very cool show

Nicky · 01-20-2009, 08:09 AM

He's alright, not in my top 10 favorites though.

WebairGerard · 01-20-2009, 08:31 AM

he's a great player but he's pretty whacked too. very funny interviews as well.

I commend Buckethead for not selling out to Ozzy the king of selling out.

Agreed to a certain extent but BHead does have one of the more soulful sounds for someone that is such a technical master.

BTW... I think someone made a typo on page two. You might want to get right in there and check it out.

Violetta · 01-20-2009, 09:44 AM

haha... both he and his music are ugly!
