Buckethead
Such a weirdo, but a very gifted guitarist. I just recently discovered him. Does anyone here know anything about him?

Re: Buckethead
Man, that's really sad and god damn funny at the same... When I saw his live videos on YouTube, I was seriously stunned at his performance and his other vids. I'm just curious if the story on his website is really true that he lived badly and mistreated... Or maybe it's all made up?.. I'm still dazzled by his playing though.

Re: Buckethead

Does anyone here know anything about him?and until he takes that stupid thing off his head then no one will ever take him seriously. Rumor has it that he left Guns n Roses because Axl Rose took a shit in his bucket and then put by his bed while he was sleeping
When Bucket Head woke up before that show he put his bucket on and ran out on stage and played the whole show wandering what the smell was. Well when he went to take his bucket off to get in the shower the poop had melted and it ran down all over his face
Well when he confronted Axl about the whole incident Axl told him that he should be honored to where the poop of Axl Rose on his head and if not then he was fired. Anyway thats just what i heard
That is beyond disgusting! If that's a true story, if I were Buckethead I would've kicked Axl's sorry ass up between his shoulder blades!! NASTY!

Re: Buckethead
Shouldn't we be calling him "Shithead" instead of "Buckethead"? I agree that he'll never be taken seriously with the stupid gimmick. If he really was a strong player, he wouldn't hide behind that get up. Shouldn't he be playing with Gwar or Slipknot? How he ended up in what was to become the new GnR I'll never comprehend.
