From Quiz Get to Know Buckethead!

Answer: Red Hot Chili Peppers

From the Bucketheadland.com FAQ: "One journalist's account reported that the lead singer picked Buckethead up at the airport and found out that Buckethead had not heard any of their tunes. The audition proceeded anyway, and Buckethead played in his inimitable fashion (i.e., robot dance, hyper-metal licks etc...). When he finished the band applauded raucously. Flea confirmed that they auditioned BH saying that he was "sweet and normal," but they wanted someone "'...who could also kick a groove.'"

And as awesome as Karl Malone was, Buckethead has not paid audio tribute to him yet.

He says, 'No one calls me Brian except my mother.' So I said, 'Pretend I'm your mum then!' I haven't even got out of the room and I'm already playing mind games with the guy. What happens if one day he's gone and there's a note saying, 'I've been beamed up?' [Laughs] Don't get me wrong, he's a great player."
