No response from Buckethead means...

[K-Rock]

Buckethead did in fact get more exposure since joining GN'R.  I had never heard of him and still wouldn't have heard of him had he not.  I know own 6 of his cds.

If he wanted to use GN'R to get HUGE then I think he should have stuck around a little while longer as out of all my friends, family, co-workers and acquaintances.....nobody knows who he is unless I've said something.....and even then nobody seems to care.

No question BH got more publicity from just being associated with the Guns name, then again, silence doesn't implicate guilt. The guy was a flake...Axl is a flake...it was too flakes floating in the night an' neither could see eye-to-eye, and from what else we've heard, Mr. Head didnt get along well with Robin, who had been there longer and (likely) conrtibuted more to the new material. Is he a great player? Undoubtedly.Will his leaving hurt GNR? If GH sales are any indication, probably not. It's the name now more than the players, and it will be the name that sells new records if they ever see the light of day.

Guns N roses fans when Buckethead is in the band.." he is the best guitar player ever,he and Axl are an awesone combination"

Guns N roses fans after Buckethead leaves.. " he was a loser anyway,Axl dont need him."

Just pathetic and delusional

Great post, just replace "Guns N roses fans" for the nicknames of one or two people.

Well, someone just posted on the dust n bones list that they were working with Buckets management, i guess Catalyst?, and that after the Vancouver show they told him that basically Bucket was doing this to get his name out there and that he didn't want to be associated with the negative energy coming from Gnr.

Anybody read that? I accidentally deleted the actual post.

As far as the silence goes, why wouldn't Buckethead share his side of the story....I guess he figures the fans he made will far outnumber the fans that would say "fuck Bucket!"

Yes I did and I don't think he made it up.

Considering the fact that they did pass out stuff at the shows. But just because his management said that, doesn't mean it's the whole truth. As usual, we can only speculate.
