He calls himself Buckethead, and he claims that he was raised by chickens in a chicken coop. In some live performances I've seen footage of, the bucket had a sticker that said "Funeral" on it, but in other footage, it wasn't there. He wears a white mask (think V for Vendetta, although he came along before it), and a KFC bucket on his head. If you haven't heard of him before, let me give you a brief summary.

And that's not even an accurate count, because nearly everyday for the past two weeks, I've listened to my Giant Robot cd on the way to work in my car, and I've also been listening to other Buckethead incessantly on my iPod. If you visit my Last.FM page, you'll see that my most listened to artist, by far, is Buckethead. If you do have one, post it here!īut that's not what I came to talk about. I've heard some new musicians that I like because of it. ( I don't know if any of you have one, but it is pretty cool, I guess. Here's what I wrote about him on Whisper Forums: Some links for those who have never seen greatness:īuckethead is probably the only guy still alive right now that is honestly cooler than I am. I can't stop listening to this guy's music! Some of you may know of him from his unlockable song Jordan in Guitar Hero 2. folks just call him buckethead!!īuckethead is probably about the best guitarist around. He did puppet shows on corners and bought a real guitar,Īnd with the help of colonel sanders, hes bound to be a star. When he burned the chicked house down with a quart of gasoline. Now late at night hed sneak off to the graveyard all alone,Īnd play a soapbox guitar to the faces made of stone.īuckethead found his freedom at the age of 17, Theyd hose him down with water, and steal his little friends. folks just call him buckethead.įarmers would torment him as he snuggled with the hens. They made him live in a chicken house to try to and hide the shame. Hes the bastard son of a preacher man, on the town he left a stain. On his head a bucket of chicken bones, on his face a plaster mask.

Whos this guitar-playing sonsa bitch?, is a question common asked.
