Axls_Moustache_Rules Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 He's had an absolute mad flurry of releases, lately. One way of discerning the cream of the crop is checking his bandcamp site: https://bucketheadpikes.bandcamp.com/ and scrolling through his pikes. Typically, any standout pikes have lots of supporters and they're leaving a string of compliments and praise in the comments section below the album. If you get familiar with it, it's clear. I typically give any new release a quick listen and I know pretty soon in if I'm going to purchase. Failing that, just follow someone like Natter Net on YouTube! My recent new favourite Pikes: Journaling might be the best but Moon water is outrageous. No, Colouring of metals. Fuck it They're all fantastic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved a recent song, can't remember what called but it gave me elvis type vibe. Hay, what happened with bucket, what's story of him leaving gnr?

BigMike322 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I can't keep up with his releases...I sneeze a mnd he release 2 more pikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakey Styley Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Really happy to see him out there and that he’s healthy enough to still do the nunchuck routine. Also not a short show. He seemed like he just kept wanting to play based on all the little cover bits he was doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike322 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Only saw him once in 2018. I would love to see him live again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike322 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) So I was browsing bucketheadland pikes, and he has the $2 sale going on. Just bought 11 pikes for $23.00. Been awhile since I've hit up one of his sales. Edited October 8, 2023 by BigMike322 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'cause I know if I buy the whole discography, the next day there will be like 3 other pikes I didn't buy with a discount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike322 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 He has one big bundle for everything, but that's too much for me. I only have pikes from bandcamp and the Posiden Poke signed on vinyl. Damn all this talk really makes me want to see him live again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axls_Moustache_Rules Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 He's gone wild again. Plus it seems to be releasing some stand out handpicked tracks from previous releases for free. Which is very cool. Can't keep up with this monster of a being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 He announced some shows in New York and Philly... the pikes website says 'Live shows on the way with special guests'... I really hope he tours with a band again, and comes close enough that I can see him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeline (the singer) is only gonna be doing a few songs with him. Brewer probably on bass again? No mention of a drummer... Juno plays synths/electronic parts, apparently that's the same person as Netlag who appeared on pikes like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Comstock Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Really looking forward to seeing him in Seattle next month. I'm not crazy about Madeline as a singer, but some of their songs are pretty nice. One Man Party (track 9) and Suburban Ghost (track 3) are cool. The tour starts in less than 2 weeks, really interested to see what the setlists are like and whether it will be 2 sets, or just Madeline guesting for a couple songs as was originally planned (they've released a bunch more music so maybe they'll play a longer set together?) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimisbatman Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Getting into Buckethead more these days and want to know more about his story in gnr/entry/exit of the band. What's the best site for this complete info? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Well this tour is off to an interesting start, lol. Turns out Bucket is basically his own opening act - he played to a backing track for the first hour or so, doing his classics. Then an intermission before the rest of the band comes out. Brewer is now on drums and Juno on bass. They played about an hour and 40 minutes with Madeline and the band - a few classic rock covers and most of the new album Veins Of Institution. I haven't seen videos yet, but all the reviews I've read have slammed Madeline, and people seem pissed about the 'bait and switch' of buying a ticket for Buckethead but really getting a Buckethead & Friends show. Seems like there were a ton of issues at the first show, too, from monitors not working to Madeline seeming unprepared. Still really looking forward to seeing them in Seattle, if nothing else this is gonna be a very unique Bucket tour... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the fence about buying tickets for Ardmore on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was his set with Madeline and the band... she sounds rough but hopefully improves over the next few shows. Really doesn't help that she's so high and dry in the mix... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
