I hope he\'s signing autographs  

Well it isn\'t to aid breathing it\'s to breathe in horrible atmospheric conditions like in a workshop.

But those look like those plastic buttermilk biscuits you see in kids kitchen playsets, the realistic looking air filled food.

Are those plastic biscuits he has on the tops of the filters? Or

Does anyone know what happened to it? I\'ve been looking for the closest up shot of it and I can\'t find anything on it. however seems like photos that were taken after that, show that he doesn\'t have a volume knob on that pot and then he replaced it with some generic black knob.

The most logical explanation I could come up with is that it fell off maybe due to the lack of a screw and he wasn\'t able to find it on the dimly light stages he performs on.

There is one seller on eBay who has around 40 of 3CPO, Boba Fett, and storm trooper knobs but they are cast metal and aren\'t painted.

I\'m thinking that the most logical explanation is either Bucket himself or someone painted it the appropriate colors since there isn\'t even an archive that depicts a painted storm trooper knob.

The reason I\'m so interested is because I\'m sort of making a "living" homage to Bucket by putting a storm trooper, speed knob, and arcade kill switch as well as an X2N and an Air Norton S in my strat.

Except since I\'m so influenced by Spinal Tap the knob is a cream speed knob that goes to 11!

So I suppose I\'ll have to get one from eBay and paint it myself.

I\'m 50/50 on the situation. Buckethead is a mastermind musician and has indeed realized that only he can make his music sound just the way he likes it. I\'m guessing he got tired of Brain and Pinchface "doing their own thing" style drumming instead of the way Bucket wants it to sound.

I do agree though, it would be nice to see him play with other members but hey, maybe he\'ll employ some animatronic members and a few bucketbots.

how much for a bucket?

by old style you mean 1991 right?

I\'m trying to order a white chicken bucket or food bucket for halloween, but every online retailer sells them in super packs for resturants. I only need one so if I bought say 300 I\'d have 299 perfectly good chicken buckets that would gather dust.

What I propose is maybe Travis or someone could sell them (maybe in Buckethead\'s toystore) and sell one-offs for 4 or 5 bucks.

The one I have posted isn\'t white but It\'s better then some artsy pattern that looks like a hotel room ice bucket.

And remember, these are the 10lb or mega sized buckets, like the one bucket uses and the ones KFC no longer carries.

Does anyone have them? I can\'t find them anywhere, I don\'t know if they are in the album fold out because I seem to have misplaced my jewel case..

Does anyone know what they are called? or did he have them custom made?

at 1:00, what event was Bucket playing at? I\'d like to see more.

Does anyone know if this is a separate song? or a part of a song? I can hear Bucket noodlin\' in the background and it sounds mighty good.

I almost forgot I recognized that he has two arcade buttons for kill switches, how old school and awesome is that?

As I posted it earlier I forgot to say that, now I\'ve listened to about 5 or 6 versions of the song I definitely like the one above the best, it\'s just a shame it\'s not in better quality.

I really hope this is on an album or will be in the near future!!

Travis, this one is directed at you, I just want to know if we will see that track on an album this year.
