I\'m pretty sure this song means something to most of us who love Buckethead\'s beautiful expression.  And, to some of us there are days when it means a little more.  Sadly, for some of us, a day comes along where it suddenly means something very different, and we\'re touched and our hearts swell and we cry, but we\'re glad that this song is there because sometimes it helps get those things out and helps to get us through.  I know of a sweet friend who this song is I\'m sure holding a whole new meaning for today, so I\'m putting this up for her since I\'m sure she\'ll be by here soon.  Thinking of you.  Hang in there.  Big Love to you.

Truth:  it's OK if they don't understand.  if you follow it, stay true to it, and respect it, you could be in store for the greatest journey you could ever imagine.

To my dear friend. I\'ll be looking for the brightest shooting star flying across the heavens tonight and will bow my head in a moment of silence and send the warmest Hawaiian moonlight hugs to you to help dry your tears. Hawai he olino aloha keia ia oe e (I give this bright ray of love to you).

 Aloha Pumehana

May you have all the peace possible at this time.

 Bucketheadland has led me down many different back alleys
and trap doors throughout the years. In one of those back alleys, I met somebody very special who has gone on to become one of my best friends. For that I am very grateful.
Sending positive energy and love your way.

 I love you, buddy. Hang in there. See you soon.

I am truly sorry for your friend\'s loss.  Buckethead can certainly help get us through times like this.  I still just shake my head when I hear the common complaint that he does not play with emotion.  To me Aunt Suzie is on of the most bittersweet songs I have ever heard.

hmmm, wow.  haven\'t heard that complaint.  that\'s beyond me.  not sure how anyone can get that impression.  one of my dearest loved ones actually passed today.  she and i were very close but she was also blessed enough to live 97 really awesome years in this plane.  oddly enough i\'ve been soothed by Inbred Mountain.  go figure.

That is very sad news.  I hope she was surrounded by loved ones until the end.  My sincerest sympathies.

As far as the no emotion thing, I used to see it all the time in the comments on Buckethead youtube videos back when I was stupid enough to read comments on youtube videos.

thank you.  she was indeed, and i seriously think she went "wiiiiii" when her spirit flew.  she was ready.

ah, i see.  that would explain it then.  thanks for the heads-up, i\'ll continue being oblivious to youtube comments, haha.

Sympathies from me, too.

This emotion thingy is repeated by Slash fans all over since - ahem, ya know...

Just have a look at the Gibson message boards if you want either laugh or cry.

Right, it is basically a fallback on something completely unquantifiable in order for them to be able to claim their guy is better.

My condolences to you and your family Nuff, but WOW at 97 she must have seen so much change in the world and had equally as many stories, insight and wisdom.

When I lost a dear member of my family a little over a year ago I found the last few tracks of Colma to be very healing for me. It was just what was in the car at the time and to this day I am so grateful for that. A couple of those songs still bring tears to my eyes when I hear them as I will never be able to associate them with anything else.

My sincerest sympathies on your loss nuff. Sounds like you have some great memories with her. Sending good karma to you and your family.

 I am sorry to hear about that, nuff. 97 years on this plane is a blessing. All of my best to you during this time.

QuoteFirst off - my condolences to you and your family Nuff, but WOW at 97 she must have seen so much change in the world and had equally as many stories, insight and wisdom.



maybe we should start a new thread on this topic and keep this one about what it was started for...




thanks for the kind words yawl.

ya, i don\'t know where the tram went when hexa(sorry can\'t remember their name right this sec) took the wheel but if it is some sort of bucketbashing ((ignore)) as you mentioned, or anything that has negative energy (((keep it away!!!))) surrounding   it, that would be really super cool of you guys to transfer your notes on that topic off of this thread and onto another one.  really cool.  thanks for thinking of it.
