I don't really follow his channel, but he's posted some cool stuff over the years. Streaming the Praxis show seems to have annoyed a lot of Bucket fans though. I can see both sides of the argument tbh, Bill is right to be angry that something he was doing to pay for medical bills was streamed for free. But on the other hand, I don't know how many people who watched the show on youtube were going to pay for the stream in the first place, or even knew about Bill's health issues. I wonder who wrote that statement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'm on Natternet's side on this ordeal because the stream helped promote Praxis to much more people who are casual fans than if it stayed locked behind a paywall. Throughout the stream, the Gofundme page for Bill Laswell was frequently posted for people to donate, and he raised well over his sixty thousand dollar goal. Because of the limited time nature of the PPV stream before you lose access to it, I was waiting for a release on Bandcamp of the live shows before buying into them. I don't know who's posting on behalf of Praxis, but it's sad to see a divide being created among the community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know enough about Natternet and the 'controversy' around him to take a side, but I think his Praxis stream will probably do more good than harm in the long run. It's cool to see Bucket interacting more with fans recently though. This is a cool update to the pikes site 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosso Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 @Gackt I don't know what to think about those Live Pikes. The live versions of certain songs are exciting to hear but the whole thing seems to be a easy cash grab for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 He did another one of those “talking” albums with the alchemist guy recently. Pretty interesting to hear him talk more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been hoping these releases are just to tide people over while he (finally) finishes up releases like the Music in Pictures tarot card album that was delayed multiple times, and Haunted Horror Sounds of Bucketheadland's still scheduled for an October 2022 release. The first single from his collaboration with Azam Ali should be coming soonish as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that he should find a new management or a better working shedule. Edited September 23, 2022 by Sosso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can definitely tell that Bucket is his own manager, for better or worse I feel bad for whoever's been waiting for preorders from him, since there's pike releases from years ago that have yet to be fulfilled apparently... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a workaholic which is great but also bis biggest problem. He has so many projects that some of them get delayed so much that it becomes ridiculus. For example: I had to wait one year for the Roller Coaster Track Repair and I paid in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonGuns Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Wasn’t there another collab also announced like a year or more ago? Someone called “Primo” (or something like that). Also I’m sure an announcement was made regarding a new Bucket and Bootsy album that I’m pretty sure went nowhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
