Buckethead first came on my radar in the early-2000s in Axl Rose's reformed GnR. The guy is a straight-up virtuoso, with some very bizarre behaviors, mannerisms, and his movements in stage, amplified by the anonymity behind his emotionless mask. There's very little known about who this person really is, it's almost a DB Cooper like story, it's fascinating going down the wormhole on the Internet trying to learn about him, other than it's mostly accepted that his real name is Brian Carroll.

It's hard to find recent ProShot footage of him, but I'd love to see him live, besides the obvious shredding, his shows seem like a fun time.
