I'm kind of weirdly obsessed with the dude. Not really for his music. But because of stuff like this:

One of the bands I play in did a festival on the outskirts of Seattle last August. We went on right before Buckethead. After we played, Buckethead's people made everybody in the entire backstage area clear out and leave so that B-Head could have a clear path to walk from his van to the stage. Really? Like he's Madonna or something?
On a side note, dude is SKINNY...like toss him a cheeseburger before he dies skinny.
Anyway, he got on stage, with no band, pressed play on a CD player and played his guitar along with a recording of a band! A whole set of guitar karaoke. Guitaraoke? He's a good guitarist, but I thought it was pretty underwhelming.

Buckethead is known for being pretty crazy with "no one can be in his space" stuff....

I dunno. Mean chops but personally It's just a bit meh to me. Although I admit I watched my way through Starcastic's video out of a morbid fascination not really listening waiting for the next piece of wankery. But yeah. Up and down and up and down and hey why use one scale when you can use many at the same time and if I play fast it doesn't mater if it works :idk:

Don't mean to come out as overly harsh just not my thing I guess.
My 2 cents
