Some Buckethead for the guitar guys
« on: October 06, 2007, 11:25:18 PM »
This guy usually draws a love or hate response from people.  Some can't get past the bucket/mask thing, but I think the guitar players in here can appreciate the guy's talent.  From what I understand the bucket thing started as a joke but stayed because he wanted people to focus on the music.  Either way, enjoy (or not;) for some)

The music wans't bad at all. I think it was a little simplistic but that is just me, not my style of music.

I had a bigger issue with the length of his hair than the bucket on his head.

Funny, seems like it would do the exact opposite. Hope those are all new buckets ~ or his hair must get pretty nasty.

Yeah, Txmom I thought the same thing about the bucket-it's the first thing anyone says when I show them a video of the guy.

And Mark, the hair?  C'mon I could totally see you sporting a mighty mane like that! :p

and thanks for the comments.

I like this one.  Ignore the ending, the true genius was the first 1:15.

YK, Demon, thanks for the replies and good posts.  Yk, if you liked that picking that Buckethead was going for in the G n' R concert post, then this will be right up your alley.  Enjoy.  Oh yeah, he's legally blind.

So 'Ol Bucket Head can play "Under the Double Eagle" on the electric guitar...it's more impressive on a banjo.

Your thought of a "true genius" really shows your age.

As for the rest of his stuff... it's some Uriah Heep, Yes, Black Sabbath and a touch of Ozzy... it's all been done in the past.

Nothing to see here, move along.

Mac I'm surprised-thought you'd like my pickin' link. Maybe you'll like this gentleman.  I'll now hijack my own thread and see if you like this ( I think he'll hold a candle to just about anybody)

I"m quite old enough to know that music and you completely missed the point of my post.

Once again, you appear a lot less stupid when you don't type.  You should do that more often.
