Buckethead & Napolean Dynamite

[W. Botaxl Rose]

While watching some old Buckethead solo's lastnight on youtube, it occured to me that Napolean Dynamite ripped him off with the dancing & nun chucks. Has anyone ever heard if BigB was an inspiration for the Napolean character or is it coincidence?

Or maybe Buckethead ripped Napolean Dynamite off. I honestly don't see the connection between the two.

Uh, Napolean came out shortly after Buckethead got exposeure on the 2002 tour. What I particularly meant is the dancing & nun chuck part that Bucket would do at the beginning of his solo on the CD world tour. Then, a year or two later, ND comes out with him dancing to the same music in his room & all hyped up on nonchucks. Coincidence? I think not. Watch BigB's solo, then watch ND, it's where the idea came from, it has to be.
