Subject: A real music thread. Sun Mar 20, 2011 6:44 pm
Since music is my favorite thing in life I thought this would be fun to do. You list a band/musician and write a paragraph about them, including there styles and include some of your favorite songs. Pictures rock. You can rate musicians also. Il start off with buckethead.
----------- Buckethead is a guitar god, and also a urban legend. He was born in 1969, and his first band was the Deli creeps. To start off, here is Binge and grab. (live) GOOD GOD thats a horrible thumbnail to start this thread off!!!
The band consists of buckethead on guitar, pinchface on drums and maximum bob on lead vocals. The lyrics are very black humor. Lyrics like "i know what kind of killer i am" probably scared away audiences.
After that, he played some gigs with primus. Primus is a very famous band known for their bass player, Les Claypool. While playing with primus, buckethead got together with "Brain", Primus drummer. They created a band called "Praxis" That band contains Bill laswell, Bernie Worrel, Brain, and Buckethead.
Extremely new for there time, they were not very popular with bands like Nirvana taking the stage. After that buckethead pretty much only did singles. He has OVER 60 albums, saying something. His songs usually contain no lyrics. He has heavy metal songs, Funk, Jazz, Rock, techno, pretty much anything. Also known for his unplugged work. In 2005 he had a big break.
That song featured is called "Jordan"after the basketball legend Micheal Jordan. The song was played many times live before, but the popular video game "guitar hero" has it as the last, most challenging song.
Other important Buckethead songs.

Now that you have read this much, here is the urban legend http://bucketheadland.com/story/index.html Long story short.
He lived on a farm until his parents sent him out to live in a chicken coup. He recived a guitar, so it wasnt to bad until the local kids found out about him. They burnt his face and gave him a empty kfc chicken bucket. He placed the bucket on his head, got a mask and went down to the graveyard. He played to the graves and angels, till he fell asleep. He woke up with chicken bones in the kfc bucket and had superpowers.
He now plans to open the worlds first abusement park, Buckethead land.
