Proving once again that if you have a dream and chase it and NEVER give up, good things will come. I used to see these guys on Michigan avenue in front of what is now Macy's and I wondered if they'd ever get noticed. Looks like perseverance paid off! -Kudos!
Are you serious right now? Where do you think talent comes from? You don't just wake up one day with an innate ability to play a drum. You can't buy talent with money. Talent is literally the result of an enormous amount of hard work.
The irony is kinda funny. Sponsored by the Illinois lottery. If the bucket boys can make it, so can I...I'm gonna go buy a lottery ticket right now. LOL. Love it.
Bonkey whoever you are, if you have this divine rhythm then you should go forth and use it but why judge others. These guys started out on the outside and were invited in. I can dance and catch a beat but I could never do that.Good luck to them, they are trying to entertain and they do it well. Why do we all have to pull everyone down all the time?
apply to the Blue man group..if you dont mind looking Blue...all the Bucket Boys on the streets or where ever have crazy talent..wish they all would get noticed and given good paying gigs...JMO
these guys have amazing talent and wanted to show a 4th of the world if not more what they can do. they have became well known becuase of this. congragulations guys
When ppl do something bad tha world wants their head on a stick... but when they do something gud here comes a hater!!! Shout out to everyone who posted a good comment!!!
In this day and age where some bro with a laptop can be called a musician, these guys exhibiting great snare drum skills (just on a bucket) are definitely musicians. They would be anyway though, while a plastic bucket isn't technically a drum (membrane stretched over a frame to create a resonating chamber) it can still be considered a percussion instrument.
I hope someone out there got footage of what happened last Fri Nov 21st 2008 at the Target Center, when these BUCKET KIDS were greeted by Rick and Andy Ausland from Minneapolis-based "BUCKETS AND TAP SHOES". They call themselves the Chicago Bucket Boys, but the footage will also show that they were wearing MN T-Wolves shirts. Hmmmm..? "Buckets and Tap Shoes" sent them home to Chi-town with a spanking, and I think they stole one of our tambourines for a souvenir. Please post if you shot video.
@PlatniumB0B Post a video of you doing that half as good as they are, give them some respect. What they do is really impressive and Im sure its not that easy.
So many rude ppl to say the things they do. Karma is a beoch. It'll come back to them. These guys were amazing.None of these cruel commenting jerks post a video doing anything even close to as impressive as this. Can't and won't. These guys are great and if you watch the vid bucket boys story maybe you could appreciate how hard they work to go far with what little they have. And enough with the racism. Some people just don't know what it is like to struggle.
So in other words, should I understand from you that you vouch for those 7 dislikes as being not just from ignorants? (now 16 but we'll focus only on those 7)
Being an old percusionist, I can appreciate their talent. These guys are good.
You can see the look on their faces... They are so grateful to have made so made far in their young lives...
glad they got some recognition
Some great pictures of the awesome drummers:
Flickr > Search Members > "mckrezwick" > There is a set called "Chicago Bucket Boys"
it's heartwarming to see this. look at where they were back then.. and look at them now. good job guys.
Just so talented!! What a privilege to be able to hear them.
Andre Hunter one of the 4 was killed om March 15th 2015 in a shooting... RIP!
R Mathis that's not true

Damn, I have been seeing them since I was little. Always been an inspiration to learn drums. Rip him man fuck I probably saw him perform before.

THE BUCKET BUMS !! If this is what the Bulls want to support, I will become a Mavericks fan. Better ownership there too!
what brand are those buckets??? they look like Tama
Just amazing... The best
That moment when men with buckets sound better than kids with drums at school...
I dont agree, I think they are amazing, But your comment made me laugh. Thumbs up for that.
What is the song at the very start?

awesomeness!!
they cam to my highschool like 2 weeks ago
Do they do more stuff other than unison drumming? They're tight and all that but there are bunch of different sounds you can get off a bucket.
i know these guys they are by wrigley field in the summer time during cubs games.
Fuck Yeah! That shit was awesome!
at the beginning it sounds like fucket boys..still AWESOME!
i can honestly say that was was fucking PUREEE awesome!!!!!!!!!!1
that was awsome
Aren't those the ones that performed on the street?

@napdog23 Not all of us... I've been watching different vids from these guys for the last twenty mins.
its like the Beijing Olympics opening haha
@catalicul Loooool......when he says "they are the SHIIIITTTTTTTT!!!!"....he's implying that they are very good. lol.
@PlatniumB0B Post a video of you doing that half as good as they are, give them some respect. What they do is really impressive and Im sure its not that easy.
They came to my school
gotta get me some corn rows...
Great half time show if that's what it was.

So in other words, should I understand from you that you vouch for those 7 dislikes as being not just from ignorants? (now 16 but we'll focus only on those 7)
