Paul Gilbert is a big influence on Buckethead for sure ! They are good friends and I think hang out together alot too from what i can make out from bucketheads only magazine interveiws.
But the same guy? I can see why people might think that !! Bucket may have the same deadly accuracy and timeing as paul but theres where the simulatirys end for me - both in terms of music and physical appearence! Buckethead is quite leterally gigantic in stature! His hands are the biggest i have ever seen ! He stands at 7 foot with his stage atire on!! Paul is ever so slight in stature, side by side Buckethead dwarfs him !! Haveing watched much buckethead footage both onthe net and bought all his DVD's its clear to see how different they are ! Ive seen footage of bucket playing piano in his basement with just a clear mask on! You can almost make out his face properly.... Great thread by the way! p.s this is a great video to see the size of buckethead compared to a normal man (if you can call robin Finck normal!) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOGuU87EZSQ This post has been edited by mattacuk: Jan 3 2008, 08:17 PM -------------------- mysql> SELECT * FROM master_name WHERE ((firstname = 'Paul') AND (lastname = 'Gilbert'));
"The Fundimental Difference between Paul Gilbert and Buckethead is that Paul Explores the Good side of the force, while Buckethead Explores the Dark Side of the Force" :) |

I would have wholeheartedly accepted it, however, if he had butchered the original and just littered it with shred runs - not a huge fan of shredding but I would have found it ironic. -------------------- Don't Panic.

If you notice I said "as well", I hear many of the licks from Cacophony directly in Buckethead's repitore.
Perhaps it's just some exotic scale that really sticks out who knows... |
