Buckethead - Soothsayer - Williamsville, New York - 7/28/08

[HawkHunterGK]

i can't beleive there's a dislike here...

[BucketheadLS1]

That was epic. Seriously, no one on the planet could duplicate that.

[TheRealAchilleZ]

@BucketheadLS1 That's because it's Buckethead. Many have tried, all have failed XD

[kGmusicpage]

my favorite lick is from 5:47 to 5:57

[666animalmother]

man at first I thought the best version was the studio ver then I thought it was the mishawaka 06 version then I thought it was this and that , but NO it was THIS ONE, man point is bh seem to top every version of his songs by his next one

[colonelcocoa]

Buckethead doesn't sweep. He uses many sweep fret patterns but he enver uses the sweep picking technique and yes i know what they both are. One of the things that makes Buckethead amazing is the fact that he can alternate pick sweep fret patterns and it sounds great. All he does in this video is alternate picking no sweeps anywhere in this video

[LithuanianGuitar]

@colonelcocoa You can obviously hear sweep picking in the studio version of this song.

[LehmannDaHero]

@LithuanianGuitar It's not that obvious to me. Which part of the studio version does he sound like he is sweep picking? Which minute?

[LithuanianGuitar]

@LehmannDaHero Near the end. Listen to last 2 minutes I think

[LehmannDaHero]

@LithuanianGuitar Oh yeah I hear it. Lol how did i miss that?!

[metallifan84]

greaaaat concert! he was on fire at the vic..

[Amphibianman94]

woah! i live in Niagara Falls! I MISSED HIM!!! NOOO

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Over a year ago bud XD

[fightinglucan]

bummer

[jonfallin]

omg my soul cried tht was amazing

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Thanks, it's by far my favorite Soothsayer performance that I've seen yet. It's amazing. That and he shreds the fuck out of his guitar in this one ^_^

But that lick in the beginning...unexplainable. I love it.

[GuitarLegendV1]

man you are lucky getting to listen to buckethead live

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Yeah dude, It was amazing seeing him. All the videos I have of him that are taken from like a "side shot" are when I personally saw him live. He pulled me on stage in the beginning too AND I got a toy.

[s0ldier898]

awesome fucking vid

[olywrestler140]

awesome

[Jeoentertainment]

I wish I could have seen this. I only live about a half hour away from Williamsville.

[TheRealAchilleZ]

I wouldn't've missed this for the world if I lived THAT close.

[ibanezJohn]

fuck this guy is amazing..

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Yes sir :D

[thekingartur87]

He's the Fuckin Master Large Life to Buckethead

[fastone0009]

Im glad you just repeated what i just said.

[fastone0009]

You don't seem to know what sweep picking is. It's when you pick 3 or even 6 strings not as a chord but fretting your fingers as your picking hand strums downwards (and upwards if needs be.)

[marcowasright]

That's a poor definition for someone who doesn't know what sweep picking is. You can sweep through as many strings as you want as long as there is a continuous downward or upward motion of the pick. Lots of players add hammer on's and pull off's or even tapping.

[ZachJG2221]

lol yea MAB sucks. There is sweeping in the studio version. Not this one.....sorry....

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Where would the sweeping be in the studio version, sir?

[ZachJG2221]

Well, at 8:20 in the studio it sounds like sort of a sweeping type of excercise

[Naes201GR]

you know what you're talking about. AchilleZ doesn't :P

[TheRealAchilleZ]

I don't know what i'm talking about?! LMAO alright buddy...

[ZachJG2221]

Im just saying there is sweeping!!!

[Naes201GR]

Do you even know what sweeping/ sweep picking is, sir? B/c there is no sweeping lick at 5:25. That annoys me.

[ZachJG2221]

I knew it was sweeping!!! Fuking awsome. At least bucket doesnt use sweeping in like every song like MAB and Malmsteen. Thats all they ever do in solos and things

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Sweeping? where?

Malmsteen >>>>> MAB

I enjoy Malmsteens music though but I hate MAB so much. He's so overrated.

[xjoshyuux]

i wish gibson or epiphone made signature buckethead guitars

[allyshank]

i hope he doesnt let them

coz that woould mean he would be selling out

hes done nothing to sell out so far

[alex111999444]

i listen to this song like every day, thanks for uploading it

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Hell yeah man, just doing what I like doing; promoting the master. This is the best live rendition of Soothsayer on Youtube in my opinion so I just had to upload it. You're very welcome. Rock on Bucketbot.

[dilmeister99]

GOD

[tobbaask]

buckethead is best (y)5*

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Yes sir he is

[MaRa37Uchiha]

I really love this song and this guitar idol

[TheRealAchilleZ]

As do I

[elevendayempire]

Sweet Zombie Jesus, that's incredible. Best performance of that song I've seen.

[TheRealAchilleZ]

Exactly why I uploaded it. It was the best version live I could find and he just shreds non-stop. AND it's the day I met my girlfriend :D
