Media preservation is important! One of the primary purposes of this channel. The previews for the as of yet unreleased Pikes 286, 289, and 290 are no longer available on Buckethead's website. All of the links are dead. I hope Buckethead gets around to releasing them eventually. Additionally, Pikes 295 and 513 were skipped without being given artwork or title, and 525 [currently unreleased] has been given an artwork but there is no link for it on the site.

State of the Channel Post!
PART 1: PERSONAL UPDATE. Don't feel obligated to read if you are uninterested in the person behind this channel, this is simply some insight into what my goals for the future of this channel are and how I plan to go about achieving them.
The reason this channel has been inactive for awhile up until recently is because I have been dealing with severe mental health struggles over the past few months [the details of which I wish not to share]. I am now in a place to actually dedicate some time and effort into this channel again. I don't want to let this channel consume me, and I don't want to pressure myself to work on it if it will take a toll on my mental health. I want to keep this up as a hobby until my ultimate goal of having a fully organized and complete archive of every piece of official media Buckethead has ever released or appeared in, no matter how long that takes.
PART 2: current goals, roughly in order of how soon I plan to complete them:
1. Redo some older uploads from when my quality control system wasn't as good as it is now.
2. Complete uploads for everything on the discography spreadsheet, as well as the new Pikes
3. Check various quality control aspects of every upload in order of the spreadsheet, and fix thumbnails/descriptions if needed, or if necessary re-upload.
4. Chronological organization of each discography category playlist
5. Updating the spreadsheet to include newer releases. My spreadsheet is as far as I know the single most complete record of the entirety of Buckethead's work, but I have fallen out of the habit of updating it in the last year or 2. Eventually it will have all of the new Pikes and random singles he puts out on the website. Everything. This shouldn't be too difficult once the uploads are caught up because I make sure all new releases are on the appropriate playlist. My eta for this goal is probably 2+ years, because I want to wait until I am fully caught up on all of the uploads to do it.
Anyways, this is basically how I view this channel and what I want out of it going forward. Thank you for reading if you got this far, hope your year has been better than mine.

[I am not Buckethead - This is a fan-made channel]
"Who's this guitar playing sonzabitch?"
Is a question common asked
On his head a bucket of chicken bones
On his face a placid mask
He's the bastard son of a preacher-man
On the town he left a stain
They made him live in a chicken house
To try and hide the shame
He was born in a coop, raised in a cage
Children fear him, critics rage
He's half alive, he's half dead
Folks just call him Buckethead!
