[daven58100]

Eddie Van Halen squared + Bruce Lee + Michael Jackson = Buckethead

[nicolastxable]

16 slash = trash fans

[November30126]

Nein Hitler. Heil Boobies

[UnofficialBinary]

At 1:58 even his guitar strap is number one XD

[AwpKillzU2Much]

who thought his nun chuck disappeared at :33 ?

[djjazzek]

Nun chucks + Shredding + Dance = Immortality

[djjazzek]

Nun chucks + Shredding + Dance = Immortality

[thewafflenator1]

it sound like Resistance by Muse

[kibijit]

@thewafflenator1 If anything, it's the other way, seeing as this was released in the late 90s. And I'm not hearing the resemblance.

[thewafflenator1]

@kibijit i know but if u listen to the techno-ish version of Resistance they sound alike and i dont listen to BucketHead much soo yea i dnt kno a lot about him but yea hes really good

[nikthedick123]

@thewafflenator1 muse sucks and buckethead is actually talented. dont ever say that. thats like comparing george lopez to carlos mencia.

[thewafflenator1]

@nikthedick123 dude im just saying they sound like the same beat i love BucketHead more than muse and BucketHead had this song before Muse

[nikthedick123]

@thewafflenator1 i think you took my comment too seriously lol i was just fucking with you.

[thewafflenator1]

@nikthedick123 i kno but i still like Muse its like saying Nirvana sucks

[nikthedick123]

@thewafflenator1 no its like saying jonas brothers suck. its true. haha aint that a thigh slapper....

[STOBMNT]

@thewafflenator1

You mean

27 by Reckless

I made the same mistake

[DethKubeK]

@STOBMNT And who the FUCK is Reckless?

[STOBMNT]

@DethKubeK

A band that sounds a lot like muse

[DethKubeK]

@thewafflenator1 Who the FUCK is MUSE?

[malepipe]

I LOVE how on so many of these live videos he gets introduced and it's dead silence.. and then proceeds to blow their freakin minds out!!

[kibijit]

@TTrmetal Best comment ever.

[mr931126]

@TTrmetal no watch a video from the band scooter....dubble gay

[elim536]

Buckethead: (picks up knun chucks)

Bruce Lee: "REALLLY?!!!!!!"

[elim536]

Buckethead: (picks up knun chucks)

Bruce Lee: "REALLLY?!!!!!!"

[cegp2009]

he's the best!

[chacojepas]

1:34 He sounds just the same than his master. Exactly the same I would say

[BaneOfXistence4]

You can tell he was inspired by Michael Jackson.

[YoruTaro]

Wow...In that beginning lick, I can hear the Paul Gilbert

[fishman017]

Impressive dance, as always, but a little too much reverb on Big Sur Moon, at least that's how it came across on here. Cool video anyways.

[nathare1]

1:36-1:46  That"s one of Paul Gilbert"s Signature Lick!!, Buckethead is absolutely one Of PG's masterpiece you know.. And they are in the same level of playing, so stop comparing them with crappy players.. ^^

[MistaLewis82]

whoever thinks he cant play for shit i bet he can beat the livin hell outta you with those nunchucks then shred off into the distance..

[grimrapper3]

Dave Mustaine "Buckethead is probably twice as good a guitar player as me and Slash combined" so shut up idiots

[kibijit]

@grimrapper3 I think that is the first time in history Dave Mustaine hasn't called someone a motherfucker. :L

[MrSounday]

@grimrapper3 why is the fastes guitarplayer always the best?

[grimrapper3]

@MrSounday it's not about speed, Buckethead can play everything he wants. He can play whatever he wants, whenever he wants. He changes the solos at his live performances and he does it spontaneously. That's why he's the best to me

[hepatitis123]

@grimrapper3 Not to mention the fact that he IS the best. :p

[pennypackerh8sspider]

lol buckethead is amazing

[triviumfr3ak]

ok people, who the fuck cares about who is the best guitarist. just fucking listen to music that makes you groove and fits your personality. people who argue about music dont really listen to the vibe the song gives off, they listen to the flaws and bitch about them. JUST LISTEN TO THE FUCKING MUSIC AND GROOVE

[1337Tailz]

theres on way to play big sur moon in acoustic guitar (without delay) you just hav to be fast at alternate picking, just alternate pick every string about 5 times, and you will get a cool sound ;)

[ultraninja89]

I like how he just throws the nun chucks into the crowd.

[kalma5003]

I hope there is a dvd somewhere

[kzelmer]

Buckethead.: Soul (Padmasana), innovation (Escape from inbred mountain), shredding skills (Gigan)... and of course, pure art (Soothsayer).

Buckethead is the man.

[reddkey]

theres too much echo on that Big Sur Moon, I dont know if its the venue or what but I can hardly make it out. Hope they fired that sound guy.

[xenonnati]

people .. please stop arguing who is better .. ok ? if you can play anywhere near buckethead's level then you are ok in my book ..

MUSIC IS THE STUPIDEST TOPIC TO ARGUE ABOUT .. since its COMPLETELY UP TO PERSONAL FUCKING PREFERENCE ... thank you for understanding

[kibijit]

@xenonnati I wish I could give you a big rosette or medal for "Being the first person on youtube to actually make sense" :L

[larz25]

@xenonnati

bravo well said good sir thank you bring sense back into a senseless argument

[adilovemetal]

@xenonnati i love u man!

P.S- am straight ;) dnt take it the other way

[marxistinpdx]

Is it about speed, precision, feeling? Or is it about making the sounds in your head real? Comparing musicians can only be done in a certain areas where as saying who the best is will always be up to interpretation.

[bangaroodong]

stop comparing guitarists!

[halomlg117]

9 people got hit by his chuck's XD

[357magenum]

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. GOD!!!!

[Azaxaaa]

Proof that Buckethead is a robot... He dances like one

[JgHaverty]

dude, if I saw steve vai doin this shit, Id literally shit my pants hahahaha 

[IamAlwaysRight]

wish this was longer, its brilliant, pure genius

[QuistTV]

f###in hell he's got some cool moves!!!!!!!!!

[Hawmawn]

Can anyone tell me the name of intro song...the one on which buckethead is doing the robot dance. Free/Pre Thanks.

[Assassin9304]

I wonder if hes better than syn, he cn play faster, but idk, syn has more melodic solos.

[kibijit]

@Assassin9304 I lol'd.

Listen to "Too many humans", "Padmasana" and "I love my parents", then say Syn is more melodic xD

[GILMOURED1]

@kibijit lol i dont mean to hate on buckethead but listen to 1:48 through 2:14 and tell me buckethead is melodic.... its absolutely embarrassing to listen to that, it's horrible its not music at all i can make better rhythm on my cell phone.. however he's very talented although i'm not sure why he resorts to making crap sound right before his amazing songs.

[SalamisNuvolari5001]

@Assassin9304 they are both unique.. buckethead masturbates with the guitar where syn and a7x write top seller metal songs... they are both amazing.. but remember what ozzy said about buckethead; he is insane but he plays like a mutherfucker.

[GILMOURED1]

@Assassin9304 a guitar player can't be better then any other just because there faster and in my opinion David GIlmour wins over both of them :) . but if ur going for speed it would have to be paul gilbert or Buckethead. but i would have to say if u want to judge them by how they sound and the feeling in the music they create it would have to be synyster gates. The only extremely fast guitar player i know that really puts feel into his music is Guthrie Govan but he's more like a god.

[kibijit]

@GILMOURED1 Of all the "arguments" I've seen on the internet, this has been very well structured one, and I'm happy my video has hosted it. 10 points to both of you. :)

[heinleincgad]

@Assassin9304 joe satriani- flying in a blue dream live.... syn's sloppy as hell next to this.. check it out and tell me what u think.

[AvEnGeDsEvEnFoLd2020]

@Assassin9304 Synester is better! I love A7x period...but Syn is better

[deaddonkey2010]

@AvEnGeDsEvEnFoLd2020

your a fucking idiot synyster gates isnt a patch on buckethead. dont be fucking stupid. a7x are shit too

[RDdaNINJA]

I want to see Tom Morrello and Buckethead play together on the same stage.

[ej7654321]

Don't tell him he can't dance, he knows karate.

[dragoninfernal17]

Is Chuck Norris xD

[lawdactyl]

Buckethead wears a mask because the first time he picked up a guitar, he shredded so hard he melted his own face. He's worn a mask ever since.

[AfroAlex97]

When Buckethead stops playing guitar he can just start dancing.

[ststephen909]

dancing and mind blowing SHREDDING! can this be topped?

[live2rockdie4rock]

what's in the bucket? A bucketful of "I'm going to kick your ass with nunchucks then blow your eardrums with epicness!!"

[BucketHeadControl]

Buckethead is better. Why? Buckethead doesn't give into the main stream media, and if he did, he would have twice as hot shots comes after him, more than slash. Slash just does the same thing, OVER AND OVER and even copies to a degree.

Bucket is far better, and he just makes music for a passion. Not to be consumed by all the idiots and jerks who want to add vocals, keyboards and a faggot back-up guitarist who wants too look cool. Bucket = AWESOMENESS!

[asdfcrow]

Solo was great, but the big sur moon sucked, fucking delay

[Skullit2theMax]

@Littlenaitcherboy

What i Meant By That Was

The Reverb & Delay

Are To High,or Rock & Rio Has Shitty Quality

[Skullit2theMax]

WOAH! That's WAY Much To Reverb

[RabidSquirell312]

@Shadethewolf buckethead has better skill than Tom morello why? Because all Tom can do is make noises and small riffs buckethead can shred with Paul Gilbert and bootsy Collins style.

[kibijit]

@RabidSquirell312 With all due respect, while that may be your opinion (which you are entitled to, mind), Tom Morrello can play fast licks, like the solo from "Know Your Enemy". Aye, it's nowhere near as fast as what Buckethead can play, but speed isn't all that matters, and some people like noise. I mean, Bieber fans, for instance. xD

[jaboogiedoo]

@kibijit With all due respect to you, Having listened to more or less the full catalog of both Buckethead and Tom Morello, it's not hard for me to form the opinion that Morello is very similar to Buckethead, only without the enormous talent.

Don't misunderstand, I enjoy Rage immensely (they're in my top 5), and mainly because of the guitar work. When you take all the solos and all the noise of each of the two, you find a lot of similarities.

[jaboogiedoo]

The only difference is that Buckethead is faster, more precise (or sloppy when it's his intention, which could also be counted as precision), more melodic, and has equal or better riff quality. Tom Morello's riffs are often amazing, no doubt about that. But so are Buckethead's.

As a side note, the last minute of Buckethead's "Carpal Tunnel Slug" is one of the greatest guitar solos in existence.

[thehate227]

It isn't just the speed and who he plays like. Buckethead plays fast paced songs, he plays slow paced songs, and he plays songs in between. The common factor between all these? He plays them with emotion and feeling. Every concert that he plays at, he plays songs with his own special added touch. Also, he's probably the most original guitarist, seeing as how he plays each song differently than the last time he played it. IE: He doesn't play Nottingham Lace or any other song note for note.

[manofsuds7]

@RabidSquirell312 personally, i think Tom Morello's riffs and solos are way more memorable than Paul Gilbert and all the other crazy shredders out there. While shredding is impressive, it's boring as fuck to listen to after a while. 5 minute shred solos put me to sleep.

[158teeh]

soothsayer solo =)

[aaroniusfalonius]

I wonder what he would sound like if suddenly his effects pedals fucked off...

[Shadethewolf97]

Tom morello and buckethead are equals

[nugeforprez]

behind Buckethead's mask is Colonel Sanders

[DeWellstein]

3:04 on going -> goosebumps alert!!!

[AFI2Zeppelin]

[deathcore1239]

[kibijit]

@deathcore1239 Why the hell would you even need to imply there was a competition?

[deathcore1239]

[makmubotak]

KFC bucket? lol

[kibijit]

@makmubotak New to buckethead?

[makmubotak]

@kibijit True that

[kibijit]

@makmubotak Ah, fair enough. Anyway, to fill you in on some gaps, he's been wearing the bucket for a fair portion of his career. It started off with a beanie, then he got a bucket. Occasionally wears other peculiar masks.

[Robben911back]

@makmubotak Dont tell me its the first time you heard of Buckethead!? If you are 1% interested in metal, you had to have heard of him!

[makmubotak]

@Robben911back well actually I heard about him last year {thanks to the suggestions box)

[Robben911back]

@makmubotak Thats good :)

[byebyetou19]

@makmubotak welcome to Bucketheadland 

[alaid257]

Big Sur Moon is fucking amazing

[KARNAGE94]

nunchucks help your fingers to play fast the guitar !!

[skyblack3]

Can i get a towel my face is melted 

[chavez1311]

I bet I can tell you who his favorite ninja turtle is!

[LartenCreapsly]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG. its chuck norris

[KlonkaDonk]

Lol he dances like neil from the inbetweeners

[niarthunderus]

What is the song that Buckethead kicks in @ 3.08 ??

Been looking for years!!!

[jaranarm]

@niarthunderus

A Time For Us from Romeo and Juliet

[usernameSPARTAN117]

Do you wanna know why he`s the best?

Because he enjoys to do what he do on Stage.

Play Guitar in a terrific way, specialy this song.. Omg I love it d:

Do the Nunckucks and the Robot dance

I bet that if He do something else that he uses too, he will do it in the best way :D

[frightman91]

i love the mortal kombat part in this song

[AlexChaseMusic]

to much distortion for big sur :( But it is still pretty sweet

[aurangxaib]

slash can suck buckheads socks

[masterchiefownsuall]

bet he can jerk 

[kibijit]

@masterchiefownsuall ROFL. You had to be "That guy", didn't you? xD

[masterchiefownsuall]

@kibijit  yep i love bucket hes the shit

[deaddonkey2010]

this guy seems to be brilliant at everything he does. i cant imagine him being bad at anything

[soUare123]

i dance like that when im in the shower

[AdelbertMegaphonia]

The perfect man. <3

[1962trex]

like buckethead is WAY!!!!!!!! better that slash vote up if you say yes to this comment

[bucprime]

@1962trex buckethead has no freaking emotion in his playing, he shreds yeah. but hes a robot

[1962trex]

@bucprime i dont care if he has no emotion, i dont care if hes a robot, i dont care if hes from a diff planet.. i like his music!!!

[Dmyster311]

@1962trex Plus slash probably sucks at using nun chucks.

[IamKIDBUU1]

hey i know whos under that mask its michal jackson  :D

[kibijit]

@IamKIDBUU1 For the dancing part, you may well be correct.

My theory is, behind that mask is an avatar full of souls, the souls of Shawn Lane, Bruce Lee and someone that can pop 'n' lock.

[ihaveaverybadcold]

@kibijit you are both wrong.....its regis

[Cuirras]

@IamKIDBUU1 Newbie, no its chuck !

[1990Olloccin]

paul gilbert is the reason why this song is made.

[3R1CtheRED]

lol nice chuck taylors

[kibijit]

@3R1CtheRED Converse! Nicely spotted sirrah!

[Bboyhiper]

If you have a mask it all goes better, proof #1: Jabbawokeez, proof #2: this guy

[ramonjesuscar]

what a mess, sounds terrible in my opinion :S

[KCKatheist]

@ramonjesuscar You're engaging in satire, aren't you? Just joshing, right? If not, then I am compelled to inform you that you are a tasteless bastard who has never picked up a guitar and tried to play proficiently ever in your miserable life, and whatever "music" you do listen to is radio friendly commercial dreck that would poison the ears of those of us who can play, do so well and with emotion, and consider Buckethead an icon w/out equal. Have a nice day!

[TheUdyu]

hi please sheck out me!!!!1

[ramonjesuscar]

Michael jackson got a mask and a bucket 0:40 !!

[PGspeed88]

@ramonjesuscar

NEVER disrespect Buckethead like that, Buckethead actually has talent.

[AWiiBitStoned]

@PGspeed88

Lol this bloke is good but you can't deny Michael Jackson was a legend, be open minded and not a closed off book, no one can say MJ had no talent.

[Nil8Z]

absolutely amazing...

[wizzard28]

wow¡¡¡

[supershadow115]

HEAD=EXPLODED!!

[earsBLEEDmetal1]

i bet the nunchucks that he threw in the audience knocked someone out xD

[silenthillX0]

I think buckethead has alot more heart in his songs than slash

[robinpuk13]

@silenthillX0 totally agree with you!

[Hammersmashedaccount]

DAMN! There is no way that Buckethead is human...

[216NaZzTy]

I just Farted and it STINKS!

P.S. this is Awesome :]

[robinpuk13]

@216NaZzTy me too im not kidding!!!
