New Guns N' Roses - Nightrain Boston '02

[JedidiahRosetta]

Buckethead will always be the most technically accomplished guitarist to have been in Guns N Roses, also in my opinion will he be remembered for the best headwear. That's right Slash...fuck your top hat. lol

[shredmaster100]

thats not buckethead its an imposter i looked it up on the net sometimes gnr would hire some tall french shredder if buckethead wasnt able to do a concert and u can tell its not him because this guy is taller than the real buckethead and much fatter lol

[hallio111]

@shredmaster100 dude, what the hell are you talking about?

[shredmaster100]

buckethead looks fatter here than when i saw him a year ago so he must have lost a lot of weight if its the same guy lol

[JonnyYang123]

@shredmaster100 that's because here his jacket is puffy. when you saw him a year ago he was wearing something tighter. I dont know what else to say...you seem like a troll.

[TuPadreCubano]

dam is buckethead 6 ft 10?

[gunsnramon]

3:45 DAMN what a great part of the solo that is. Whole solo is awesome, but that part kicks all asses.

[olydennys]

Nightrain song doesn't have a Buckethead's solo. His Solo has a song called Nightrain : D

[HiagoStrikeCA]

Slash e buckethead imortalizaram a Les Paul da Gibson.

[coooldeal]

love him or hate him,Axel can assemble a band!

[JoeMakesCoasters]

lol he totally owns Finck.

[imaslash1]

noooo, buckethead or DJ Ashba is the same ruined this song my god that people like to ruin things

[DeathMerciless]

yep. he messed up when he lost buckethead.

[raihitler]

he plays slash's solo plus his own. Just fucking awesome!

[nazbuk]

is not supposed be so perfect like Buckethead

[sunset2880]

it's so easy easy..for Buckethead.

[1962trex]

Buckethead - FATHER

SONS - Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Eddie Van Halen

[sunset2880]

Buckethead's movement amazing and Robin Finck's movement is disgusting!

[TAK808]

take it? no i'm pretty sure axel just had an orgasm at how awesome buckethead is and said "TAKE ME!" instead xD

[GuitarmanIIII]

bucket head is rockin out..lol

[arhmangina]

Bucket lowed his guitar for GNR, looks different!

[YoLpIsBest]

I just get goose bumps at 3:21 where the solo starts.. Greatest guitar player ever.

[MIKEY2193]

buckethead couldnt afford a slash tophat so he wears a bucket instead

[YoLpIsBest]

@MIKEY2193

Slash couldn't afford Bucketheads skill so he just plays e pentatonic.

[darklordbill]

Solo Dominated. 10-18, Mission accomplished.

[thelucasveloso]

Wow... The Predator is the new frontman of Guns N´ Roses?! :-D

Just kidding... go, Axl!

[GodinChild]

Sweet cover band....I miss the 90's...lol

[leopardy211]

@GodinChild FU! Mr Featuringman wants to Axl apologize him... FOR WHAT FGS!!!! R they f kids or what? F TRATOR! RIP Mr Featuringman! After CHINESE - the BEST RnR ALBUM FOR PAST DECADE - THERE IS NO F CHANCE ABOUT REUNION WITH THIS TRATOR! AND YOU KNOW WHAT - I`M TRULLY HAPPY ABOUT!!!! GNR R GREAT WITH THIS CREW! THEY HAVE DAREN JAY, RON, FORTUS, MAD TOMMY, GILBY AND NO NEEDED FOR ONE F TRATOR - THE BIGEST ENEMY FOR AXL & GNR! RIP Mr CO!

[GodinChild]

@leopardy211 ...I can't properly respond to this. You don't make any sense, dude. If by 'Traitor' you mean Slash, he and the others left for their own specific reasons, as most of us real fans are aware of these. Relax dude, I have a lot of respect for Axl and I always have. Please lay off the CAPS button. And, Gilby Clarke has never been associated with this incarnation of the band. Still a great cover band, though...

[hastyberford]

4:05 best run ever.

[ifneeed]

1:06 idiot falling down.

[AlexisGolnas]

Buckethead owns nightrain solo :)

[ldlo0olbl]

Slash looks pro, and is hell good at guitar.

Izzy was dedicated and held everyone together, even if he didn't do all the guitar solos.

This buckethead prick is gonna turn guitar into techno shit.

[Danger05Productions]

@ldlo0olbl you're an idiot

[phuckethead85]

@ldlo0olbl yeah cos your way better than buckethead on guitar arent u!!!! prick!

[kristofor12345]

I love buckethead's version of the solo. Beautiful.

[gunnerslash]

Buckethead owned that solo, just awesome

[GOKZERAH]

who's the chick at 5:29 (<---that's a joke for those of you who don't get it) and why doesn't GNR give the fans what they really want and just get off the stage already?

[motley13mars]

buckethead it's so good because he's a cyborg!!!

[jizzleman1101]

come on now just go ahead and say it way better solo when bucket cuts one but dont forget who wrote the original solo

[slikkar]

go buckethead....genius

[zachlixy]

Buckethead's Les paul is obviously bigger than regular ones.

[nikosgnr87]

Best Nightrain Solo..!

[oaskdio]

Buckethead Solo was perfect

a think the problem isn't Slash or Buckethead

is Axl

[boutcha1]

Glad I got to see GnR several times back when it was the REAL deal. I even dug Matt Sorum on drums. This ain't GnR RAUNCH!

[beastrock666]

I listen to buckethead music all days and he abuses all ways of music sorry all gnr fans

[69kakinho]

love buckethead!!!!!!!!!!!!11 his music is weard and awesome!!

[spookderhund]

OMG Buckethead is awesome! O___O

[MaxNathanielJames]

1:05 epic fuckin' fail.

[sagitariusboyz31]

hahahaha...1:05,,,lol robin finck...



[Devilathor]

I love the Buckethead Movements!!

[MrBluntsworth420]

glad axl got his voice back these days...sounded terrible in 02...buckethead was awesome in this video tho

[olydennys]

take it

[SwanRefresh]

"TAKE IT " YES I GOT IT! 

[1971junkyard]

this is nothing but a freakshow....gnr is already dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[grazzhood71]

@1971junkyard somehow i really feel your statements... send me shivers...

[theblackslash666]

Personally I think Axl has ruined GNR, they all had an amazing chemistry and all, but like now, they kinda suck...

[darklordbill]

@theblackslash666 It's not Guns n Roses any more, it's Axl and friends. It's too bad Axl is such a miserable bastard to work with, They had some good stuff going.

Also, I think some kind of unholy union between Buckethead and Slash playing together would have been one of the greatest things ever.

[theblackslash666]

@darklordbill

Yeah, its pretty much Axl and whoeverelsewantstoworkwithhim and Dizzy Reid... No one knows who he is really... Slash and Bucket doing some kind of union thing would be like amazing :D

[StopRunningKid]

D --> I love Robin, but does anyone find it funny how he tried to 100k really weird when Buckethead joined, and then tried to 100k more badass when Bumblefoot came around. I think Finck is a bit of a copycat like that, haha. Also, Buckethead played the shit out of that solo, geez. Then again, did anyone e%pect anything different?

[TheTKDkidd]

Buckethead is a great guitarist , i really respect him!

but he wasn't the right for Gn'R

[skyvoodka78]

buckethead is a god !!!!!!!!!!!

[feodor85]

with all due respect to slash, when it comes to music or more exactly the contribution to music itself, slash is just a mark on a keyboard, while bucket is a titan, he's out there with the big ones like mozart, bach, his stuff should be sung in giant opera houses while hundreds of millions worldwide applaud so please fucking spare me the "buckethead doesnt have any soul" retard routine

[Az090460]

slash humilha esse japones do pinto pequeno

[METALLICA8877]

I HATTEEE THE NEW GUNS N ROSES THEY ARE SO BADDD

[gobersiak]

its duel solo

[loljonasfail]

what the hell is with fink? he's probably there just to suck so hard and make buckethead look even more awesome by comparison.

[nthvt5672]

slash is way better he has this thing called emotion hes not a fucking robot on stage like this retard with a bucket on his head

[monsterhunterbrad]

@nthvt5672 do the musical world a favor and fucking die

[craigb47]

IS it me or buckethead is much taller than the singer XD

[monsterhunterbrad]

@craigb47 yeah buckethead is like 6ft7in with out the bucket

[Bu3off]

[leopardy211]

@Bu3off RESPECT MAN! GNR FOREVER! AXL=GNR!

[Romrock666]

Buckethead ! Buckethead ! Buckethead ! Buckethead !

[SOLOTHORN]

And the whole fantastick thing is that SLASH had a great band with him when he was playin that in ritz...Axl,izzy,duff,steven all great musicians on the other hand except Axl buckethead had a bunches of useless idiot but even that way he made that song GREAT!!!GREATER THAN THE ORIGINAL's THAN RITZ's or than any other version...

After listenin t that outro solo i am always like: ALLRIGHT SLASH MAYBE ANOTHER TIME....AND i repeat i absoloutely love SLASH but BH is the nightrain LORD!!!

[japsukka321]

old gn'r FTW !

[FatKidsRuleTheWorld]

I love how buckethead contributes his own style. Different than slash, but nonetheless very unique

[mitchellvanvliet]

buckethead is making capes sexy again.

[ryanashby211]

its kinda hard to out do something thats millions of people are used to hearing played a certain way.....thats the same as slash redoing a soothsayer from bucket and saying the old version is better.....duh dumb asses everyone knows that but bucket has more talent technique and skill than slash will ever have in his life....bucket forever.

[sandwichtube]

sorry but the 1988 version at the Ritz is 100000 times better

[Dzeminator]

BUCKETHEAD!!! Awesome ;)!!

[dragancexz]

this buckehead hand made solo is not from this planet !

[MusicForPeaceGermany]

@dragancexz yeah, your right... no one else would made a solo which is not hitting the song exactly...

[TheMetalChefOnline]

Axl actually sounded fucking great on this cut. I've never heard him really nail the top end of this song live like this, and I saw them live twice on the Illusion tour.

[thatsitfuckit]

............ I ment to put 86'-93'

[thatsitfuckit]

buckethead is good but slash is just plain better in Guns N' Roses... D.j. ashba is good and AGAIN SLASH IS BETTER IN GUNS N" ROSES..! no doubt,.. had the image and the vibe... fuck these dudes who later in the years turn there image to street and shit like they started the dam thing... only Axl.. thats the only rreason I'll go and see Guns N' Roses now.....thank you you tube for the Good Guns N' Roses.. 96'-93'

[Deeh1901]

Fuck, that solo fucked up, Slash owns....

[shane53077]

Black and Yellow......Black and Yellow......Black and Yellow

[SOLOTHORN]

SLASH is 150% RULED ON THIS SOLO....BUCKETHEAD MADE THAT SONG AN OUTERSPACE HIT

[gejza87]

POOOOOOR!!!!!!

[embassyhotel]

BUCKETHEAD Rules,that robot thing is so cool! He's definitely got his own style&is in a class of his own for sure! But if it wasn't for Slash BucketHead would be working at a KFC filling buckets!

[bordertown]

@embassyhotel

What are you talking about? Buckethead already had a music career way before he joined GNR, you just never heard of him.

[nokerti]

@bordertown at the time he joined guns n' roses he had 5 studio albums

[4KEver]

@nokerti more like 25 studio albums not 5

[Iluvbuckethead1]

@bordertown wait.... I'M A HIPSTER.

[idontmindthepain666]

fucking sad'

[cac1987fcb]

drummer sucks...



[ryanashby211]

@cac1987fcb that drummer is brian "brain" mantia which he does not suck its these gay ass gnr songs that steven adler compossed that he has to play get it right

[olydennys]

@cac1987fcb DO NOT DISRESPECT BRAIN MANTIA

[blaziankhmer]

buckethead is INSANE!!!!

[JLDoggard]

It's pretty clear Buckethead is in different class to Slash technically, but when the fuck did rock music become about who's the best technically? If it was all about technique, we'd all still be listening to Paganini.

[romaggot]

@JLDoggard it sounds better too...not just technically. As does the november rain solo.

[nic95]

If it wasn't for slash, buckethead wouldn't have played any of these songs. 

[masajhn]

RIP GNR

[screamingzombies57]

havn't cheked any GNR video since le ritz'88... what is this bullshit all about??? RIP GNR.....

[screamingzombies57]

havn't cheked any GNR video since le ritz'88... what is this bullshit all about???

[strings191]

People  with dedication know what it takes to play that well great ; no lack of knowledge here on buckets part. pure skill . jimmy page was the first to play the A one finger bar chord in second position. If you dont understand pro guitar, no need to reply.

[theciv91]

they have just the name of Guns'n Roses..... nothing else...

[strings191]

How did the bucket get so good so pro ; you wont here of him being so famous like others but he a giant.

[descontroladoxelrock]

@strings191 what the fuck are you trying to say? I can't understand a fucking shit

[buckethead2818]

should name this song "Ghostrain"

simply because of Buckethead's sick solo

[buckethead2818]

Buckethead is god !!!

Whoever said his music without soul and emotion just don't have the imagenation to appreciate a piece of art.

[podspd]

I like guns n roses with or without slash

[clbaumer]

Whats the hell is up with at 1:03? Is Finck falling over a guitar cord (think not) or is he fucked up or what? I never liked this dude. I never really liked thsi lineup. Finck is freaky. Maybe OK for NIN, but NOT GnR. Same with Buckethead. A great musician, but not a great fit for GnR. Today's lineup is probably as good as its gonna get, baring some reunion, which os good enough for me.

[mattw8675]

Yea, ill admit buckethead really doesnt go along with Gnr, unless he would just take the mask and bucket off, but thats his image.

[sallimann345]

@RawrInYawrHeart Slash should'nt even be in the top 1000 guitar players his guitar skill is like an 12 year old kid

[RawrInYawrHeart]

"Buckethead" (fucking stupid name/image he has) shouldn't be in GnR. It just doesn't go.

[guitarslash775]

nightrain level 999999999999999999999...

[catpoOo56]

hes fast but not as fast as mab

[DanteF5]

@catpoOo56 speed isnt everything

[LovelySi]

Buckethead turn with his solo the mood of this song into a complete other one

[ChrisTorres7]

 Bucketrain

[randallace]

whatever dude ....axl can say whatever he wants to , and seriously wik-o-pedia??does anyone believe the crud posted there ? really??......they can say what they want to , but true fans know Big B left on his own because his massive talent couldnt be penned-in by a crappy -has been band like this one .

[AMVCentrel]

Buckethead's solo = Better then Slash' career

[777Cena4Life777]

@AMVCentrel not really since Buckethead is now playing for clubs while slash is selling out arenas and opening up for ozzy. Personally i think buckethead can play A LOT more material and is technically a better guitarist but slash has more soul and has had a more succesful career than buckethead. plain and simple.

[AMVCentrel]

@777Cena4Life777 Slash is more hype then anything. You can't say Slash has more soul either. You have to hear all of Buckethead's music too judge that. Buckethead can do both technical, and he can do some shit that's so emotional you'll start crying without even having lyrics in the song. (i.e. Electric Tears album). The reason Slash plays in big stadiums is, because of the hype factor. Buckethead has been recently on a hiatus, but when it comes down to it Buckethead likes to stay low key.

[777Cena4Life777]

@AMVCentrel slash can be overrated but that factor doesnt matter since he's more successful because of it. Look at all of the guests on his new album and tell me thats not successful (excluding fergie lol). I know buckethead has great soft songs like soothsayer but onstage preformance is what matters and hes a robot. I know its his persona but to me it kills a little bit of the excitement and enjoyment of the preformance.

[AMVCentrel]

@777Cena4Life777 That's your opinion personally, which I respect. I like to imagine what he's feeling beneath that mask of his, and the thought of him playing his songs just does that. Slash is more successful, but so are plenty of our trashy american pop stars, doesn't mean their talented. I think Buckethead to me is on a whole different level to me. :) Though I respect what your saying, most people discredit Buckethead completely.

[zeppelin25101980]

I burnt my tough in an unconventional way today....... I licked a light bulb 

[CloneCaptainV2224]

when Buckethead saw Axl he said "God damn fucktard, maybe if I go away slowly he won't see me... In the mean time let's play a solo".

awesome show.

[elffimaan]

VIVA BUCKETHEAD

[randallace]

they didnt kick him out man .... he left cause they couldnt get thier stuff together.

[hi168fang]

why does buckethead look so bland compared to guns n' roses members? i'll bet that's why they kicked him out...

[mikeguitar41]

@hi168fang buckethead left on his own will after the rest of the group

[hi168fang]

@mikeguitar41 go check wikipedia. it says that BH was kicked out (or maybe i misunderstood and it's just that they didn't like him very much) and axl rose made a bad report of BH's departure...

[randallace]

for sure , that nite , "BIG B " brought his A-game !!!... bucket mde it his own ... love that guy .

[MrBluntsworth420]

Buckethead does sound really good here...I am thankful Axl kept GNR alive.

[seboki]

Fuckedhead is an excellent player but his apperance is not too industrial fo rock and roll

[slipslapsloppy]

my goodness this is tragic!

[douglasuk25]

buckethead foreverrrrr wowowowowoww

[Smartboxx2]

great version buckethead is a great musician altough a poor crazy fuck at the same time, well i guess it couldn't be any different in order to be a genius you have to be...well....you have to wear buckets on your head or something like that

personally i always admired slash since he's the one that got me into guitar, but over the years i realized something: slash is an exceptional guitarist but buckethead is not human..he is much higher on a guitarist evolution scale than anybody else..damn...

[JegErN0rsk]

which model of the potatorecorder is this?

[sallimann345]

i pesonally think buckethead did better for GNR than slash, it isn´t a matter how cool you are or how you are on stage, its just about how you play guitar...

[lordjuan12]

139 personas son reguetoneros :/, viva el rock !

[KarumaUchiko]

Damn. Buckethead took it....

[WeeArnSon]

Buckethead sucks. How is he rock and roll? how the fuck was he in one of the most badass rock bands of all time. He just stands there the whole time, he is a fucking gimmick. His soloing has absolutely NO personality or emotion whatsoever. he has no style and the only reason anyone takes any notice of him is because he wears a bloody bucket on his head to hide his hideous face

[xeric8]

@WeeArnSon You are so fucking retarded. Idiots like you should not comment on anything, as you are oblivious to the mass amount of talent Buckethead possesses. You think because he's a virtuoso and can play blindingly fast that he's automatically emotionless? Go look up some of his solo stuff.. he has plenty of emotion. Fucking morons..

[WeeArnSon]

@xeric8 sorry, but I have listening to a lot of his stuff and it is all as pathetic as the rest. He focuses on speed to impress 12 year old children and cannot create music that doesn't all sound the same. I think he is emotionless because his playing is just completely technical and he doesn't connect with the listeners...unless they are15 year olds

[Iluvbuckethead1]

@WeeArnSon Type in 'buckethead acoustic jam' and click the first video. /n/

[metaljar02]

@WeeArnSon or is it that in order to show emotion you need to sound slash?? maybe you dont see..there is different ways to show emotions especially when playing guitar...dont forget that buckethead is an artist.an has an imagination to create different artistic music.,,to me buckethead is just the character either you like it or you dont and maybe yeah it attracts little kids..but I see the magic in his hands when he grabs a guitar not the mask or a bucket. maybe your to old to think hes cool?

[JackLeft13]

@WeeArnSon Listen to Whitewash.

[midnight666al]

@WeeArnSon BUckethead isnt rock n roll.Buckethead is Buckethead. and how he made it to gnr im also surprised i think axl had to kiss his ass big time.I respect all of them as musicians and i dont care about the appearance and shit.IF you think hes got no emotion ur a dumbass who obviously havent heard to his music u prob just heard what old idiots attached to slash say.i love slash too dont get me wrong but ur an idiot.

[FatKidsRuleTheWorld]

@WeeArnSon What matters if he's rock n roll or not? He's adding his own style to the band. Each musician possesses a different style.. he knows what he's doing, it's just his own way.

[hsiehmingzhe]

anyone have this solo tab ?

[jutup110]

omg thats shit

[palitodlselva]

buckethead is a great guitarrist i won't deny it, but he plays metal, just hear the final solo. Nightrain is a ROCK song so it should be played that way.

Its just my opinion

[douglasuk25]

take it 3:21 buckethead amazing the best

[douglasuk25]

wtf robin finck goig down in 1:05 fck stone wowww crazyyyyyy

[wombweasel222]

buckethead can play any music, and when people critisize him for not playing it the same its just madness of course he can play the same song but he likes to make it better.

[karlhelvede]

im getting fed up with that nigga leaving stage every 2 minutes

[ohmadamn]

LMAO i watched this video soo many times and somethin JUSt hit me. notice how buckethead is staying away from all the other guitarists and the bassist. just thought that was funny.

[Jayzer313]

fucktard falling down at 1:05

[dimitre1400]

@Jayzer313 good recovery tho lmao

[CrazyMangoGuitar]

@Jayzer313 omg, i lol so hard!!!
