Praxis - Guitar Solo/Machine Gun (Live) Vegoose

[Nemesis0300]

I like the puppet-show Bucket Head puts on around 9:20

[wolfenator87]

aww crap. watch this video and you will be strongly discouraged from ever picking up an electric guitar. do what i did and quit while your ahead.

[JSTEIN78]

Buckethead will definately go down in history as one of the greatest artists/guitartists to have ever played, that is for sure. This guy is utterly ASTOUNDING!!!

[InFlames2421]

9:04 rofl. :P

[diecampersdie]

im a guitarist and playing solos like this isnt as easy as it looks u try u cant unless ur buckethead

[diecampersdie]

BUCKETHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MissAzul2]

U dont know how I love this video, is the best in the light of day with Bill, Bernie & the best drummer - Bryan Mantia , this vid totally genial & I cant stop listening to this , thi´s why ?? people loves buckethead ; )

[Yogurtmister117]

Ladies and Gentlemen Bucket head

[thebarstar100]

Yngwie could never do this jam because he is to pre-occupied with playing the phrygian dominant at light speed. I mean, Yngwie can even work a phrygian dominant into a simple 12 bar blues like Red House. Not to take away from Yngwie because he was around longer, but Buckethead is the man. Satch. Wake up and get this guy on G3.

[gerderman107]

this isnt praxis this is colonel claypools ucket of berny brains

[druged1N]

@gerderman107 And where is Claypool? This is Praxis.

[McDeadcat]

Amazing guitarist, but astonishingly probably one of the worst Machine Gun covers. Unbelievable. He must be like one of these amazing freestyle footballers, highly technically skilled but just can't play football.

[chitoryu12]

@McDeadcat

He's not playing "Machine Gun" by Jimi Hendrix. He's playing "Machine Gun" by Buckethead. That's how he plays.

[MegaLollypop77]

this is sick dude!!!!!

[EMVGuitarist]

The "noise" is supposed to imitate all the sounds of a battlefield: gunfire, bombs, screaming, etc. Jimi Hendrix did it similarly.

[xM1CHAEL]

original is better. this alright still sick though.

[a7xplays]

OMG

[arie15silverlinings]

i like his hat

[DodoTheLast]

SPACE SOLO I LIKE IT !

[Iluvbuckethead1]

Do you see that? No, do you see that right there? That's a six finger sweep. It's not a Yngwie ladder thing, it's a frickin' six finger sweep. You know what you do when you see that? Give up, that's what you do. Sit down, shut up, let it tantilize you and hope that it doesn't put you on it's hit list.

[OneThousandWorlds]

MAN, that was a kickass session! but that little Voldemort fighting nun puppet at the end was many creepies

[McBudz420]

Halloween!!! DDD:

[jackassqwe2]

DAME!!

i didnt noe the bass can hold 8 strings

[Panasper]

@jackassqwe2 its the same concept as a 12-string guitar, so its not like a 5 or six string bass where you play the strings separately, every string is doubled in a higher octave

[connartist777]

Subliminal message at 1:25

[guitarhead2k2]

nightmare before christmas song! Making Christmas! Props for that alone

[HydraFull]

Justin bieber?

FUCK YOU

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

BUCKETHEAD IS GOD

[killemboyz]

i bet the rest of the band is baked the drummer is all like woooooooooooooo....... whoa.........and the keyboarder is like dude whats with the little guy.....

[andeious]

Okay... to be honest, that really didn't sound like a solo, just a bunch of fuckin noise. But still, I won't deny that the bastard can play. He's just too damn weird dude...

[Jaymzzz1349]

@andeious

Just a bunch of noise? The day you can do those parts is the day you realize it isn't noise.

[hacker6125]

umas das melhores solos do mundo

[gibsonibanez28]

uno de los mejores guitarristas de efectos del mundo



[m0squito001]

ok.. so, this is what i'm trying to figure out. please note, that this comment is meant to be 100% serious, and i'm not trying to diss Buckethead's fans out there.

but..

Why? Why do you like this guy? What about his guitar-playing gets your motor running?

[Seemyhammer]

@m0squito001 The same thing that piques any persons musical interests. Sound. He's unique.

[DavidR9427]

@m0squito001 well i like the nightmare before christmas ._.

[BKellyS]

@m0squito001 "Why do you like this guy?" ... that is not possible to answer completely because it is music, words can't explain why you like or dislike a particular artist, at least my words can't. But as a guitarist, I am amazed by his technical abilities and... he rocks. If it's noise to some people, well that's no surprise, it's in the ear of the beholder.

[bruninhazd1]

i realy disliked

[peahnegomi]

I'd still rather hear Hendrix.

[mustaffamoustachaa]

Retarded? 24/7 guitar? - no life? bullshit !! I saw him surfing mavericks and his bucket didn't even fall off and neither did he, he's a miracle in reverse.

[crazydrummer2012]

Lol wtf

[Rene1992NRW]

i want to see him on Wacken Open Air 2012!!!

[waisinet]

@Rene1992NRW no, they wouldnt appreciate him like he deserves it

[TjGarrett]

In this video he wears three buckets so do we call him buckets head ?

[shyMummy]

what da

[Corruptedxxx]

he has clarely sold his soul, so he could me a faster player, but sadly no soul no feeling

[samszeman]

@Corruptedxxx Listen to his album Colma and you won't be saying that anymore...

[GasserVsGoodyball]

@samszeman god dammit I was just about to say that!!! then I noticed that you said it!

[Firewind4ever93]

@Corruptedxxx he's retarded... 24/7 at guitar... no life....i know one single man who has soul and his playing 2 hours on a day its GUS G! :) and he could be faster then he is..

[xriv8x]

Kurwa, on jest z kosmosu!

[norek3663]

@xriv8x

Podobno nawet nie z kosmosu... On jest... no właśnie nie wiadomo...

[TheKyOutlaw]

I was one of those guys that give buckethead shit for joining guns n roses and taking slashes spot..but he's seriously an amazing fucking musician.

[mortblack11]

what was the setlist of this?

[guitarpro594]

fucking killed it

[ragglefraggle09]

2:07 he just put every metal guitarist who needs two hands to play that made-for-tap lick to shame

[mortblack11]

What's the thing in his guitar that he always pushing like a button?

[Mis7form]

@mortblack11 the button is killswitch

[dasdWARf]

@mortblack11 a killswitch

[gutembergveloso]

I wonder if one day will appear in the world a guitar player as good as Buckethead.

[mrbonesmcgee]

Totally unique guitarist.

@gunskitallica

People who make lists are retarded, music is different for everyone. Its not a competition, just enjoy them all...

[gunskitallica]

@JamoZ46 i didnt started it look i fully disagreed with the comment so i posted this and agree with you.

[xXRazorWireXx]

@TheMurphrocks

Slash? He really is the most overrated guitarist ever.

Try listening to Jason Becker sometime, he really is a great guitarist.

[666morris666]

@TheMurphrocks

1# Dimebag Darrel is the best



[mortblack11]

@TheMurphrocks no, no one can beat Michael Angelo Batio, a man who can play in same time..

[oklofobloo]

jesus maybe can walk on water.... Buckethead can swim on land

[DRUMmerPUNK3859]

@taylorgsk8te me too;)It's so sexy

[spreadthepanicful]

9:30 is the best puppet vs bernie hahaha

[spreadthepanicful]

i love the random shots of fried chicken whens hes rippin it up at 1:26 its like " yeaaa the source of his greatness".....

[ConerTheStoner]

It takes a genuine fucking headcase to come up with something like this

Said with the greatest respect

[08minty08]

had to stop half way through before my head melted

[powerlifter501]

Carthsgtr... You are so right....another "connect the dots" musician. Electronics, rakes and shreds do NOT equal greatness

[kbdevo1962]

@powerlifter501 And neither does the name Jimi Hendrix ......

[TheStEv333]

if i hadn't seen the video and just had listen to it, i had thought it was Hendrix

[lalakekela]

@TheStEv333 ....really?

[TheStEv333]

@lalakekela I dont know but it sounds like Hendrix to me

[teachu420]

That Was Prety sick!!!

[TheWacholderbusch]

0:53 which song?

[LightlyStupified]

@TheWacholderbusch The Micheal Myers theme song

[hollybabe160]

take the bucket off and call yourself dickhead, ok

[HigherOXYD]

@hollybabe160 Go to hell, faggot troll.

[lebannerfan65]

Some of his microtonality is mindblowing and technical chops off the wazoo, but his vibrato is literally at beginner's level.... Kind of surprising really. You really hear it best in those single note melody riffs he plays from Star Wars and stuff. Sounds worse than a random dude at guitar center...

[wargasm58]

@lebannerfan65 yeah, who cares, idiot, pointless comment

[MetalAddict247]

Nah.

[ERock73]

Whiter Steve Vai....



[TheBuddahBurner]

someone post a link with a pic of his face

[supbuddywhatsgoingon]

The drummer is so good looking

[guitarprism]

A live band only gets in the way of the great Buckethead

[Vampirewolfx3]

Oh Buckethead you did it again. You made my ears orgasm.

[DMDLTLT]

oh man this guy is good he s really good ,respect,

[angiec789]

who is that asshole on bass? Praxis is with Claypool everyone knows that

[theserface]

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYes!!!



[Dungon48]

excuse me while I die from the epicness

[alienfetusllc]

i have a hard time believing he got this good at guitar... i think he was struck by a lightning bolt and the gods blessed him with these powers

[aliensporebomb]

Laswell on 8-string bass!

[TomAce200]

It must be boring to be this utterly fuckin awesome at guitar.

[JesusTerminator]

0:00 - 3:40



[lalainthecircus51]

i cried tears of blood to all of this

[lasaventurasencalson]

el monito esta bien curado es grande ese vato

[XtReMeTrIpLeX]

This guy must have been a god on Guitar Hero...

[mortblack11]

00:52 - 01:08 suspense tone in 'Haloween"

[Admiral64345678]

[plazmaxe]

[EYExCANxSEE]

[Tedericoe]

[Tedericoe]

@TheChhis Charlie and the chocolate factory theme, oo and nightmare from christmas

[TheChhis]

@TheChhis real ?

[TheChhis]

what is the name of the song 2:32-2:52 and 00:23-00:51 :) and buckethead is the best :)

[coppertweed]

@TheChhis 2:32 is satar wars lol and idk the other one

[jacobsk8er1]

He wears that so no one knos who he is i mean after he gets off stage ge can take the mask and bucket off and just walk out without anyone hassling him for random shit

[trexIII000]

if he is this good at guitar, why does he still need the mask/fried-chicken-bucket-on-t­he-head gimmick? i mean c'mon dude, just look like a normal person.

[EYExCANxSEE]

@trexIII000 yeah , KISS aren't normal and good, they're face painted !! god, what are we gonna do ?? musician have cool styles.. The end is near..

[maria123e]

that doesnt sound good its just fast , synyster gates can play fast and make it sound good.

[beastcobain]

i fail at guitar... miserably.

(hang myself)

[gooseaskreply]

wooooowwww!!!!!

[eliteslayer66]

woah this is haloween intro? NICE

[01gjmoore]

na .look at ducks can groove..........

[Adrianox360]

Buckedhead I LIKE YOUR MUSIC

[reisselpud]

EPIC !

[maggot1111666]

didnt even show up on best guitarists by rolling stone magazine, (just looked), should be number 1, or at least top 10.

[Psarantonis]

@maggot1111666 Buckethead is the best.Is the only one.Weirdest and most talended.!

[maggot1111666]

@Psarantonis

there is a couple that could debatably go ahead of him, but, its buckethead, enough said.

[Psarantonis]

@maggot1111666 a couple?who?

[maggot1111666]

@Psarantonis

I personally think he is the best, but other sources and people think otherwise, and i see their point. here is some:

Jimmy page

Danny Gatton

Jimi Hendrix

Slash

Joe satrioni

I think buckethead wins, but those guys put up a good fight, especially joe satriano and jimmy page

[Psarantonis]

@maggot1111666 I agree with you.

[EYExCANxSEE]

@maggot1111666 you mispelled satriani twice, :p

[maggot1111666]

@EYExCANxSEE

i dont know how to spell it, to complicated

[XMcEvilson]

@maggot1111666 you forgot Paul Gilbert

[maggot1111666]

@XMcEvilson

looked him up and here is my new list: 1 Buckethead 2 Jimi Hendrix 3 Jimmy Page 4 Jeff Beck 5 Danny Gatton 6 Pat Metheny 7 Paul Gilbert 8 Eddie Van Halen 9 Joe Satriani 10 Slash. What band i he from?

[XMcEvilson]

@maggot1111666 Racer X, check out Technical Difficulties video on here

[guerril1337]

@maggot1111666 Rolling Stone can't actually make a proper list of......well anything. they put kurt cobain at like 15 or something stupid, they mistake "popular" with "best" all the time.

[zeppierichris]

Buckethead = Futuristic Hendrix

[spectrumsensations]

Siendo fanatico de hendrix, esta es un buen cover de machine gun!

[bamboosa]

ok. the shredding bit in the first half is probably interesting to soulless shredders and then...a nod to Hendrix and he plays something interesting. If you like the first half then practice your scales and kill your heart.

[Carthsgtr]

This is simply a fucking exercise in being atonal. The rest is just sloppy. Doesn't have half the impact of Hendrix.

[RareBird0]

there once was a guitar player from Nantucket......

[Super666villain]

@RareBird0 who played with his head in a bucket

after the people heard him shred

they all fell dead

and the custodian exclaimed "fuck it"

[ten8goa]

THE DUDE CANT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. a COMPLETE MORON. IVE BEEN PLAYING FOR 25+ YRS AND CAN REPLICATE EVERY BIT OF THAT. HE PLAYS OK BUT THE GET-UP MAKES HIM LOOK LIKE A FOOL.

[SpawnOfBuckethead]

@ten8goa Your lack of recognition doesn't make you sound in anyway bitter, does it?!

[ilovurmom12]

@ten8goa ok you can replicate it, but can you create anything on the scale of genius any of his songs are?

[Dawgfather187]

@ten8goa lol yet here we are watching and commenting on buckethead's video's and not ten8goa's... but i will say the all cap's really does drive your point home

[leukat11]

This dude is crazy, But the best crazy dude I've ever seen ...!
