Ballad of Buckethead
Whos this guitar-playing sonsa bitch? , is a question common asked.
On his head a bucket of chicken bones, on his face a plaster mask.
Hes the bastard son of a preacher man, on the town he left a stain.
They made him live in a chicken house to try to and hide the shame.
He was born in a coop, raised in a cage. children fear him, critics rage.
Hes half alive, hes half dead. folks just call him buckethead.
Farmers would torment him as he snuggled with the hens.
Theyd hose him down with water, and steal his little friends.
Now late at night hed sneak off to the graveyard all alone,
And play a soapbox guitar to the faces made of stone.
Buckethead found his freedom at the age of 17,
When he burned the chicked house down with a quart of gasoline.
He did puppet shows on corners and bought a real guitar,
And with the help of colonel sanders, hes bound to be a star.
He was born in a coop, raised in a cage. children fear him, critics rage.
Hes half alive, hes half dead. folks just call him buckethead.
Mick Thompson is a decent guitarist, but Buckethead is all about the shredding.
He has a strange collection of people that he looks up to : Mike Meyers (yes, halloween), Leatherface, Michael Jordan, some robots...
Nobody said he sucked at all. It's just that you got all upset when I didn't go down the "OMG he's so fucking amazing!!!!!!!1!!" route. All I said was that he should be good because he's a pro, and he makes serious money from it.
I can't belive you're still crying about it two months later.
lol ya this vid is pretty boring. my favorite song he does is aquabot. he makes the guitar talk with only an fx peddle. its pretty neat. ive seen him live a couple of times also.

TLDR
And that solo completed me.
Oh, and 1:30-1:35 is creepy as hell.
where the fuck did that poem come from
It's a song, The Ballad of Buckethead, by Les Claypool and Buckethead
also I've never seen bucketheads knees before
I saw him dressed in all kinds of strange outfits in The Secret Recipe.
awesome dvd.
God Bless Buckethead
he's got a bucket on his head
Where?
I was gonna say, Mike Meyers (Halloween) meets Megadeth, but I'm still confused...
Just a little Slipknot'ish.
Buckethead is a lil` bit older than Slipknot :P
and Buckethead is a hell of a lot better than Slipkock
Mick Thompson is a decent guitarist, but Buckethead is all about the shredding.

I don't think i will ever unlock that achievement in GHII. I got an encore for Freebird at the end of Medium tour, my hand is still numb.
What? The song jordan? It's not THAT hard.
i can't even get that far, when i'm on a dong i no on the guitar it sends me into this huge cluster fuck
Song*,
When you're on a dong?
Is that a common occurance then?
He does some good riffs.
the man just knows every possible sound a guitar can make. he breathes that instrument.
Sounds like he has emphysema.
I thought this was pretty boring.
lol ya this vid is pretty boring. my favorite song he does is aquabot. he makes the guitar talk with only an fx peddle. its pretty neat. ive seen him live a couple of times also.
so he's the guy who stole the bucket of that walrus! get him!!

He's got a song in Guitar Hero II.
wow really. I guess that's what those guys further up were talking about. thankyou spankbot
Sadly thats how a number of people know him as.
"The guy with the song on Guitar Hero"
FAKE-its not a real bucket
Hey I think I figured out why this guy is called 'buckethead'.
I wish somebody would tell me, I can't work it out.
I thought it would be something obvious
bucket of shit
I didn't like it
it didn't like you
always wondered if was autistic and his one true proficiency was guitar.
