Buckethead [ tickets ] slaps on his trademark mask and Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket this fall during a US club tour that backs his 2005 set, "Enter the Chicken."

The schedule kicks off in mid-September and routes the enigmatic guitarist through about 30 cities by the end of October. The itinerary is included below.

Released last October, "Enter the Chicken" was issued by System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian's Serjical Strike Records. Tankian produced the set, and is also one of 11 vocalist who contributed lead vocals. Other guests include Saul Williams, Efrem Schulz (Death By Stereo), Maura Davis (Denali, Bella Lea), Azam Ali (Vas, Niyaz), Bad Acid Trip, Maximum Bob (Deli Creeps), Gigi, Shana Halligan and Ani Maldjian.

"Enter the Chicken" features the cut "We Are One," which also turned up on last year's "Masters of Horror" soundtrack. The track's music video is streaming at Buckethead's website, as is a documentary about the making of the clip.

Earlier this year, Buckethead offered up "Secret Recipe," a two-DVD set that features home movies, live performances, rare tracks, music videos and more.
