Title: Bingeandgrab.com Shut Down? Say it isn't so
Post by: mlgudead on April 03, 2012, 05:26:45 PM
I tried to go to bingeandgrab.com and I was met with a disappointing message. Am I the only one that feels like buckethead's online community is dieing after a strong 13 year build up of buckethbots? Where is all the love for bucket going?

I wouldn't say it is dying. The love for Buckethead is unfortunately still very spread out and as diverse as his music. From this site to buckethead-coop.com and those fans that don't venture beyond his many  YouTube videos. No Bucket bot points fans to Buckethead's actual site beyond visiting the theme park. Someday perhaps we will hear his music and march in step.

I talked with Zuzu a couple of years back and she said that she had hurt herself badly, I think it was her back, and that she didn't have the time or the funds to be able to keep the site up to date.  Totally bums me out that her site is down... it was my favorite because I used it to help complete my collection.  I think wiki is now updated enough to use that as a way to find releases, but back in the day I had no clue what he released unless it was on Zuzu's site.

ZU was also upset about other sites stealing her content.

it was my ankle, I tore it all to hell. it'll never be perfect but it works...I used it to crawl down some gnarlyass hillside in Golden Gate Park last September to see Buckethead play at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass!

the site isn't supposed to be down, thanks to tmancody for the heads up.  it looks like the host received payment, but didn't credit my account? I'll fix it asap.

and beelzeBob is right. that was tiresome. I may start updating again anyway if folks miss it.

I called them, they fixed it. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this caused anyone. the site has been up going on 12 years now, and if it ever disappears again it's an error and it'll get fixed asap.  that seems a lot better than folks saving....every page on there? yikes.
