I must admit, I really like Bumblefoot. Everything i have read about him indicates he's really down to earth, humble. Whats he doing in GNR??? I had wondered the same thing about Buckethead HA! yeah, me too....but for different reasons. Obviously Bucket is a phenomenal player, and I don't mean any disrespect - but to have a guy with chicken bucket on his head in GUNS N ROSES...i mean....i never bought it. Guns always had that badass cool thing going for them, but thats tough to pull off when you have fried chicken bucket on your head. Ah...I miss Slash.

Buckethead fits right in with Les Claypool and Bill Laswell.... According to Anthony Kiedis' autobiography Buckethead auditioned for Red Hot Chili Peppers shortly after John Frusciante left the band....I really don't think Bucketheads style would have fit in there (just like I am glad Metallica turned Les Claypool down when he auditioned shortly after Cliff Burton's tragic death)
