Buckethead is the Buckethead of bass too. It is obvious that you have not listened to his albums, like electric tears, population override and so many others, where he also plays awesome rhythms, riffs and solos with the bass...
at first, i didn't want to believe he's a robot because of his hands but now i'm convinced because no one could be that fucking insane on the guitar and nunchucks.
If ever there was a match made it heaven its gotta be Buckethead and Les Claypool. Two of the weirdest but equally most talented musicians on the entire fucking planet. They were meant to share a stage at some point.
Les Claypool & Buckethead?!....Dude, that's like, the most legendary combination since......well...since......Fuck it, who am I kidding?!...That's the most legendary combination that the history of music industry has seen thus far!....
GuitarHero62289 Check out Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains. God damn, it's beautiful! It's a superband with Les Claypool, Buckethead, Brains, and Bernie Worrell!
two living legends. Les Claypool is the undisputed best bass player alive today... Buckethead... the living guitarist legend walking the face of this earth.
I just realized that Buckethead actually IS a robot. That's the only possible way to explain him. I'm sure if you removed his mask and bucket you would reveal a jumble of circuit boards, wires and fried chicken.
+Paul B Actually, the original buckethead died a decade ago (sacrificed himself saving a small town from alien invaders). There have since been eight, each one a clone of the original
Proof that your can do any damn thing you want in your life and as long as you're an absolute freak of nature in your ability to do it well, you'll have a career doing it. You got a bassist and guitarist so far removed from "normal" and yet so completely and undeniably masters of their craft.
this is so cool. "here come the bastards" is my favorite primus song and i've always wanted to hear them jam it in this goofier kind of way, it's such a simple but cool little 5/4 jam.
+Happyist I still haven't been able to dig him. I see him as technically very very VERY good, but i can't get into his solo stuff . For me it's technical stuff over good music.
I think he belongs with primus!! they're the only folks who seem to be on the same level of weirdness with him. It might be a cluster fuck but Les is the only bassist good enough to mix well with him
What what? Its the dj from praxis. I love how les claypool took buckethead in and showed him that he was more than accepted with his mask and bucket on.
I saw Primus live in Roskilde 1991, it was the first time i heard them, very good but i belived i was in a psychosis for a while, such a New sound back then!
My favorite part about metallica is how they kicked out mustaine and he made a better band then they turned down claypool who also started a better band lol
@@user-qz3hb9kk5u Primus is so much better than Metallica it’s not even close. Metallica are a bunch of ego maniacs that barely get along, they don’t sound good anymore, and they’ve not made anything good in decades. Primus sounds amazing still, they’re actually friends, and they keep pushing the envelope with their creativity and craft.
I never knew how good Primus were, The fact that I was a huge possessed fan couldn't help matters either, so I ignored them, wasn't I missing out. Good thing though is that it's all new to me and I can experience it for the first time :-)
I'd like a large family chicken please. Dude you sure do buy alot of chicken here man whats your deal Uhhh, I like your chicken Your not doing anything crazy with the bucket are you? No,no, no, anway theres a concert tonight you going? What kind of concert Uh primus and a dude whos awesome, nah I dont really like rock Ok man Thank sir come again
Bucketheads Style fits right in with Primus, I never took the time to sit down and listen to this guy I figured it was all a big joke when he showed up playing with Guns and Roses but this guy is super talented now I'm surfing the web trying to find anything I can on him
slash's band now is absolute shit apart from Miles Kennedy on vocals and some guitar, hes an absolute god! (Alter Bridge is his own band with Mark Tremonti)
Not only does he destroy guitar, but he also fucking kills on the nunchucks
he is also a ninja
+Jesse Graham He also is pretty good at bass
Patrick Petrie show us on this doll where buckethead touched you.
Patrick Petrie
your mom likes it.
+Patrick Petrie you just mad cuz bad
Buckethead is the Les Claypool of guitar
Les Claypool is the Buckethead of Bass
So true
Buckethead is the Buckethead of bass too. It is obvious that you have not listened to his albums, like electric tears, population override and so many others, where he also plays awesome rhythms, riffs and solos with the bass...
100%
YES
True
Guitars, prison jump suites, nunchucks and dancing like a robot never went together so well.
....just like Thanksgiving at gramma's house
You forgot about the, talking disembodied head
Buckethead is obviously a robot. I'm not even questioning it anymore.
at first, i didn't want to believe he's a robot because of his hands but now i'm convinced because no one could be that fucking insane on the guitar and nunchucks.
D'Artangan Oswald he has stated in an interview that he grew up asa chicken

its rumored that les played bass for a ton of bucketheads albums.
imagine adding Frank Zappa into that mix
Luk Bur I think buckethead is pretty close to dweezil zappa,I saw an interview of his old drummer and they mentioned dweezil a bit
Condemned hey u know those 2 r a lot of fun mon-sun ....well i imagine so lol
When you think a comment, then find it already expressed in the UA-cam comment section.
Nah Primus ain't weird enough, just add fucking Buckethead to the mix.
hahaha
If anybody asks what the 90s were like, just show them this clip...
"And this was just a regular Tuesday evening."
and somehow hipster producer would be all over this guy
For the outsider club?
Buckethead makes Primus look normal.
Frank Zappa would love this combo...
@@levisalvini4110 imagine zappa coming for one last show to conduct

POOT DEE PIYP DUWN BRAH!
@@levisalvini4110 of course he would :-)
Dat nunchucks solo.
Lmao. That gave me a giggle
What's even more impressive is that he said he can't see out of his mask.

RCROX who is flea and John frusciante, Alex.

I heard bucket head is a synthesized humanoid constructed from DNA of hendrix, srv.
Hope Hurteau I think he was put together like the girl in The Fifth Element.
Hope Hurteau that makes sense.
zulu no just no
Two of the best two people to ever touch steel strings.
Um, EVH was no slouch.
You think Buckethead has a big smirk on his face behind that emotionless mask?
That isn't a mask...

Nobody recorded shit on VHS even back on 2004.

This is from a Primus VHS tape in 1998 called "Videoplasty". They were performing in California when this footage was shot.

Saw Buckethead for the 1st time at the last Wakarusa Festival held in Lawerence Kansas in 2007. Blew my mind, and I left a changed man.
James Bagley you mean you became trans gender while there? my guess you weren't very stable to begin with .
I saw him at the Grenada in Lawrence, KS!
Watch Buckethead with Bill Laswell in Warsaw, around 1996. Buckethead with praxis, that's a combination.
Buckethead will never grow old.
Paul B haha so true man
+Paul B Actually, the original buckethead died a decade ago (sacrificed himself saving a small town from alien invaders). There have since been eight, each one a clone of the original
it's cause he owns a Flux capacitor.
+leo ll yeah and he doesn't put a compressor on his hyperdrive motivator.
Cyborg Rabbit
is that because he broke his Mr. Fusion and can't harness 1.1 jigga watts of power?
this has bad trip written all over it.
I had a pink sunshine strip back in Lollapalooza and good god I woke up in a hotel room with two hookers and a bikini on.
I was a little confused.
it it was pink it was 25i NBOme real l has no taste or color no wonder i believe that happened 2 u lol
LMAO
acid
I would be like oh ummm, okay!! It puts me in a good mood here so there I am sure it would be awesome.
the level of groove at 2:40 is off the charts
Nah fr got hella funky

Everyone in the audience has to be on acid 😂
Don't forget about DJ Disk who kills it in the beginning! We almost got the band Praxis back lol.
i was buckethead for a halloween party
No you just brought the KFC .
i remember you were drunk and put the bucket on your head and ran right into the wall
And he was you being him on Halloween.
I used to have this video on VHS! haha! Would watch it all the time after school!

FG 420XX eargasm lol
Came here after watching their jam at Bonnaroo 2002, the funkiest thing I've ever heard.
Part of me likes to think Buckethead just showed up and started showing off on stage
"I will delight the audience with my tricks of whimsy."
"Okay, man."
brain's a beast.
Not only can he play the guitar like a maniac, but he can also nunchuck? What can this man NOT do?
4:37 WIKI WIKI WIKI WIKIIIIIIIIIII
LEAKS! I'd shout after that.
This video is way more epic than likes and comments show. This was history in the making.
I was at this show! Three day notice was given to local fans for a taping at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma, CA and we packed the place!
AWESOME! I was at the show they played right after at the Phoenix
Buckethead is like if a Video shop from the early 90s came to life like a fucking Mecha. Legend.
That is possibly the greatest stage entrance ever.

claypool just didnt fit to metallica. avant-garde bassist in a mainstream heavy metal band
Megadeath could be better if his singing wasn’t so unbearable
Both of those bands are great but not better than Metallica

Saw big b with Primus in 1999, greenhill park Worcester mass. Great show
if i had the chance to meet two celebrities i would choose these two heroes
Bucket's hands / fingers are like broomsticks
I wish for both Buckethead and Les Claypool to live forever
Never get tired of the Buckethead nunchucks performance
Buckethead's catalogue is unmatched.
He's Brilliant!
0:55 makes me bop up and down with Les.
“Buggethead”

Triple O.G DJ Disk with Buckethead, Rancid, Mike Patton, Les Claypool, also LaLonde from Possessed, who else? Epic.
That is one stage full of amazing talent all the way around. The 90s where the best.🍻🍻🍻
This is the greatest thing on youtube
I keep coming back to this live performance over any other by anyone else for some reason
I never knew how good Primus were, The fact that I was a huge possessed fan couldn't help matters either, so I ignored them, wasn't I missing out. Good thing though is that it's all new to me and I can experience it for the first time :-)
both bands are great
I wish I could’ve seen this live even though I would’ve only been 1. I would’ve remembered it.
Happyist : "There's no end to this man!" - Thank to God! I like you very much Buckethead.
I wasn't expecting that.....Buckethead on nunchuks. Excellent behaviour.
My two favourite weirdos together!!
I never saw Hillary there .
man. i cant get over les claypools funky bass playing! love it! buckethead isawesome too!!
Seems like I need to be on shrooms to get the "full experience".
Drillkicker lol far from it
I think youre into drugs.
plutoplatters I take drugs three times a day, everyday.
Bro I just saw Primus live on shrooms and it was amazing
This is a fun concert to trip at buckethead has to be one of my favorite gutairists to trip to
Les is so damn funky holy shit
I seen this tour !!! it was one of the most memorable performances of my life !!!
Was so fortunate to see these guys play together in 'Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains.'
PleasurePlanetDeathtrap lucky ass
RIP Bernie you wonderful alien
Would love to see this again
love how the other guitarists are awestruck by the B.
lalonde he didnt mind they shared the stage but big b rips it brother
Ahh the Videoplasty taping, that was an awesome show, one of the best.
Hung out with Buckethead after the show...totally NOT a robot.
The master of bass meets the master of guitar...
Buckethead and Claypool, two gods in one band, awesome
This guy buckethead literally knows how to do everything wtf.
Seeing Mix Master Mike DJ really trips me out. It makes sense but what a genre flip. Wild!
This music is so good it would scare the hostile extraterrestrial aliens away.
I'll second that motion
I'd like a large family chicken please. Dude you sure do buy alot of chicken here man whats your deal
Uhhh, I like your chicken
Your not doing anything crazy with the bucket are you?
No,no, no, anway theres a concert tonight you going?
What kind of concert
Uh primus and a dude whos awesome,
nah I dont really like rock
Ok man
Thank sir come again
MrR1D3R LOL Omg
hahahaha
def my favorite of all time
There's only one being that can out freak the Primus boys. Buckethead is it.
love this video. repeat after me
buckethead seems to me to be the result of Michael Myers getting board and deciding to slay the guitar instead of teenagers.
Beautiful
Buckethead looks like a god damn animatronic he does the robot dance so well xD

You're right, he is. But that's Bryan "Brain" Mantia
I wouldn't want to get into a nunchuck fight with Buckethead, he would tear me up!
Fuck it... Nunchuck solo
It just dawned on me. Les Claypool was doing a modern Frank Zappa impersonation. How did I miss it before.
Jesse Cole How so? And which part? Lol
One of the fastest bassists and one of the fastest guitarist ever
How long has Les used that "kbobby" wood bass? I remember it from the brown Album when I saw him live on an open in ozzfest. Love that sound.
You mean his carl thompson rainbow bass hes been using since he popped out of his mom?
Who knew BH was 'also' a skilled chuk-ist?
Best guitarist Guns'n'Roses ever had, huge loss for them.
