Sweet, BH rules.

We should put up some BH clips for those who are not familiar with his work.

Would have loved for Bucket to take Squid Ink to Axl even though Bucket had left the band years before the track was released.

Always felt Riad is like the bastard child of Crash Victim even though Tommy supposedly wrote Riad. The two definitely seem like companion pieces especially when played one right after the other.

Those songs could have easily been taken to Axl as well. Blows my fucking mind that Axl let Bucket release Electric Tears in 2002 while GNR was in limbo and could have used an injection of these amazing songs.


Buckethead playing Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka.

2001 lineup performing Madagascar at Rio. The Bucket solo is insane and light years better than the version that wound up on the album.

Damn Soothsayer is amazing.

Axl should have taken this guy and ran with it in early 2000's. Back then people (the general public) were excited to see GNR and people showed up to the concerts with buckets on their heads. Couldn't get any better if you asked me: A new guitarist that already had a cult following and could easily be a staple of the band in the same way Slash was.

Edit: Can you believe that show is almost ten years old now? That's even more sad than watching original GNR videos. At least they made the most of their short time together.

Got my tickets yesterday.

Axl should have taken this guy and ran with it in early 2000's.

I don't get it either. You have the most talented guitarist in a generation in your band but have him play second fiddle to Robin Finck of all people and sit on the material for years. Axl acts like he doesn't give a shit but you know he has regrets. GNR in the early 00's could have had a similar run to Audioslave.

[Mr. Roboto]

Could not agree more.

I've been using buckethead for my listings on youtube btw works great.
