Bucketheads name Is brian carroll this is the only picture of him unmasked that I could find
he was born somehwere in california in 1969. He got the idea to sport a bucket and mask one day when he was eating fried chicken. He stands About 7 Feet tall with his bucket on. He has robotic movements like mentioned in the artile below. not much is known about buckethead. But one things for sure, this greased lightin' is finger lickin good. These are his former Bands : Deli Creeps, Cornbugs, Praxis, Cobra Strike, Buckethead (Solo), Primus (Ozzfest 1999), Guns N' Roses.
Guitar one rated Buckethead as the 8Th fastest shredder in the world">
The reason buckethead decided to join guns n roses was because axl roses invited buckethead over to his house around christmas time. Buckethead kept saying no he didn't want to join but Axl kept on calling and insiting that he join. So buckethead figured well ill just over and I dont have to join. But when he got there Axl was waiting with the one gift he's always wanted and never got, a hard to find leatherface doll. So buckethead thought this guy must understand me.
The only time Ive seen buckethead live was with one of my favorite bands Guns n roses. He was sick on the guitar. I have never seen anyone play the guitar quite like him yet none of my friends know who he is. thats the problem he deserves a little recognition he may think he was raised by chickens but hes still a great guitarist. When he played he was sort of moving like a robot then he stoped playing and started to do the robot.

This is an article about buckethead and the deli creeps.
Almost like a ritual. Buckethead has a shelf in his dressing room where he put's his dolls like Leatherface and Colonel Sanders.
If you buy cds or even if you burn them you may want to take a look at bmg music service. You can get 11 free cd's and you only have to buy 1! now I might be stupid but I know that that's a great deal. I was completely satisfied with BMG Music that's why I let them put an add on my site. If you use the link below to go to the BMG music site and read all the fine print, as bucket head would say "when you come stumbling out dirty and disoriented you won't realize what a great deal you just got."
