A Thought

[Slunker]

Man, a country-inspired album by Buckethead would be amazing! A little banjo here, maybe a little acoustic guitar here, even some slightly off-key piano would add to the mood as well.

When I saw this thread, I immediately thought back to the banjo parts on Inbred Mountain, and I\'m hoping a potential country album by Buck would go in that direction. Like a bit creepy country, with some dark tones and nasty artwork to go along with it. Sort of like the continuation of Inbred Mountain, only no electric guitars and heavy distortion, more stripped down and bare, with a country feel to it. Really spooky, dirty and "inbred" country music to say the least.

Now THAT would be sick and awesome!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW!

not a fan of country but some creepy desert tunes would be pretty cool, like a showdown at midnight in the cemetary.......... he could probably paint some good musical scenery of that type

I always thought it might be a reference to Herbie - the robotic assistant to Mr. Fantastic.   He was designed by Mr. Fantastic and Master Xar - using Xandarian technology of course....  

LilZero, I think you might be onto something. In the inside artwork for Bucketheadland 2, there are some keychains. One says Herbie with the image of a robot that looks very similar to H.E.R.B.I.E. (Mr Fantastic\'s assisatnt in the comic book Fantastic Four). And being that Herbie stands for "Humanoid Experimental Robot B-Type Integrated Electronics" (and can fire energy blasts from its face), it may be a distant relative of Buckethead. I still haven\'t found a copy of Pieces yet, but I am looking.

And in keeping on the track of what this thread is about... Slunker & DUFFATRON nailed it. Spooky desert tunes would be very cool.

I read that BH plays banjo on one track on the 1997complilation album Refridgerator - anyone heard it?
