Buckethead

[Chris]

Can not add That One Guy without adding Buckethead. That is like having peanut butter without jelly. Scritti without Politti. EBN without OZN. You get the idea.

This video captures everything that is weird and wonderful about the live Buckethead experience. The music, the nunchuks, the Robot dance, the bag of toys, and the rubber chicken. Yes, it is a bizarre mix, but one that works in a very weird way. I have seen Buckethead twice on his own and once with Colonel Claypools' Bucket Of Bernie Brains. (Les Claypool, Buckethead, Bernie Worrell and Brain. Awesome show!)

I love this weirdass type stuff. I also love sharing it.

Thanks goes to chykymunky for this excellent video.

Gigan is my very favorite Buckethead tune. Here it is live. Thanks goes to PetesBloodyHand for posting this.

Something I have never seen him do...

And finally, this is a song that he always performs and does a phenomenal job with. I know if the originator of this song were still alive, he would be very proud of it.

This is Machine Gun by the late, great Jimi Hendrix

And now, a video I made from concert photos I took myself. The film clip is badly made and I ran out of photos before I ran out of music. I didn't want to use any pix I didn't take myself, though. The music is the studio version of Mecha Gigan from the album Crime Slunk Scene.
