Was listening to my David Gilmor station on Pandora and ran across Buckethead. I’m sure younger folks have but I’d never heard them. Their music is really good. Oh well guess I’m just old.

Buckethead is one guy. He has literally hundreds of albums and was in GnR for a few years. Check out his work with Les Claypool if you're into more funky type stuff. This is what he looks like

I remember reading about how he insisted on having a chicken coop built in the studio for him to record his parts for Chinese Democracy in.

He’s pretty old. I think he did Chinese Democracy for GnR. He’s a very well respected guitarist, but I really don’t ‘get’ him and his look. Apparently it’s worked for him though.

In his 50s now. He's just a very eccentric introvert with ungodly guitar talent.

Obviously eccentric but his guitar is magic.

He was there twice in 3 years. Unfortunately I couldn't make either show. I will NOT be missing if he comes back.
