Happy Halloween everyone! Les Claypool and Buckethead are like two peas in a pod. These guys are both amazing and creative musicians who also seem to defy the constraints of reality and operate according to their own set of rules.
Buckethead especially fits this description, dressing like a serial killer who just climbed out of a KFC dumpster and often communicating only through a dismembered head puppet. He is nevertheless a sought after collaborator and prolific composer, releasing 46 CDs this year so far. I think that he may have even just recorded and released a new CD in the time it took you to read this sentence.
Also… he has awesome numbchuck skills as is evident in this video of Primus jamming with Buckethead. Enjoy!
