I'm not a Guitar Hero player, but I have to say, that sounds pretty awesome!  Buckethead does deserve more recognition, for his talents.  Nice to see him included along with the likes of Vail and Satriani.  Maybe it's just me, but I think if he got rid of the bucket, people might take him more seriously.

I need to upgrade soon. I have a 360, but since I bought Guitar Hero I and II for PS2, I've been buying all the games like this for that system, including Rock Band, and GH III.

I'm either gonna wait until Nov. to get Rockband II, or upgrade to 360. Either way, the PS2 doesnt have the functionality to download things like this, so that sucks.  :(
