Thank You Buckethead for the fun, the screams, spooks, haunts, slabs, nubs, jams, shreds and total disembodiment for so many years!

Thanks for being an artist who inspires individuality, inner growth and self improvement.

Most importantly, thanks for always reminding us to take care of children, each other and the world.

May All Your Wishes Come True!

Happy birthday to the grandmaster of guitar and overall amazing human/robot, Buckethead! 🤖💕

No one melts faces, conjures portals, and blows minds while swinging nunchucks like you do!

South Burlington, give him all your energy and loudest cheers tonight!

First Buckethead show

Went to the show on Saturday and went in kind of blind. I've seen clips but I didn't go in depth to kisten to kich cause I wanted to be surprised. The dude is a freakin incredible musician but... and I know I'll get crucified for this but I left adtet the first hour. It was just to much guitar work. Basic dad rock bass and drums and him just shredding for an hour strait and I got bored.

My third show and hopefully not my last

Probably my favorite show so far because I was too high my first time (2015ish) and second time was last year with that lady singer. Big B is still elite at 56 years old. Insane

Most Melodic Buckethead Albums

The man simply does not stop recording.

Some albums strike just the right balance between intense and mellow.

So I've compiled a little list of favorites, along with some comments.
(not ordered in any particular way)

  • Old Toys (supremely groovy & relaxed)
  • Crime Slunk Scene (contains the classic Soothsayer)
  • March of the Slunks (great variety -- contains the highly slinky Malbert's Strut)
  • Shapeless (excellent title track)
  • Crumple (excellent improv)
  • Warp Threads (very energetic live set)
  • Factory (highly sonically varied)
  • Hide in the Pickling Jar (very slinky)
  • Blank Slate (great balance of energy and calmness)
  • Oven Mitts (excellent live set -- great version of Soothsayer)
  • Rivers in the Seas (excellent mix of mellow & forceful)
  • Live Feathers (some incendiary live versions)
  • Sonar Rainbow (contains the excellent Venomous Fog)
  • Land of Miniatures (great title track)
  • The Mighty Microscope (very tasty playing)
  • Adrift in Sleepwakefulness (very well-rounded)
  • The Frankensteins Monsters Blinds (highly tasty & funky)
  • Outpost (contains the incredibly funky Minor Domo)
  • Look up There (very satisfying playing)
  • Squid Ink Lodge (downright nasty)
  • The Mermaid Stairwell
  • Northern Lights
  • 22222222 (great title track)
  • In the Hollow Hills (great blues improv)
  • Poseidon
  • Oneiric Pool
  • Drift (especially #2 to #4)

Bucket at House of Blues Cleveland 5/8/26

Pretty killer show. It was surreal seeing Bucket after wanting to for 20 years. Waited outside for two hours then an hour wait inside but it was worth it. Crowd was mellow.
