Artist description Mr. Crazy is a flat out obnoxious abomination of music. No one knows his real name, but it's rumored that he is a secret rival of Buckethead. Blazing guitar solos, heavy chunky riffs, calm and eerie acoustic passages, and stright out psychadelic and crazy tunes make Mr. Crazy a very funny little boy.

Artist History Mr. Crazy started playing guitar around the time that smash hits like "Unskinny Bop," "Right Stuff," and "Blame it on the Rain," were dominating the airwaves. Crazy began listening to Steve Vai and Joe Satriani a lot, learning to shred on his guitar so one day he too could kill people with the speed of his playing. When Mr. Crazy heard Buckethead, he decided no one should be able to play that fast or that well, so he dedicated his life to mastering the technique of shred using old scriptures found on Buckethead's web page. Now, barely out of his teens, Mr. Crazy emerges with an onslaught of serious riffage and speedy tecnical solo playing in hopes of destroying pop music, and making a few mp3.com payback earnings.
