BAND:   American Zen
ALBUM: LEVEL 8 = Memorial Day Album

American Zen was founded in 1992 when Coyote moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. Prior bands included The Rich and Coyote in a Graveyard rock opera. Coyote is also Buddha Zhen who records Tai Chi and Kung Fu music. Shaolin Records is releasing the acoustic solo recordings of The Coyote under the new band name, THC The Hippy Coyote, although his last gig at the Tribal Cafe, Los Angeles, in 2013 was billed as "Kung Fu Cowboy," not American Zen.

Kung Fu Workout on San Diego Path Kung Fu Workout Area
on Scorpion Trail
This wider area of the path was also level. So I'd practice my 12 Tantui of my "Bruce Lee Bootcamp" and the Yang Style Tai Chi Short Form of Shaolin Chi Mantis. I'd do my pushups and situps here also. Every day I travelled this trail to its end, then walked back to my dad's house where I was sleeping on his living room floor.

San Diego Path 2 San Diego Scorpion Trail
in Mission Gorge

After the scorpion sting at the Brad Paisley concert, I went back to work too soon and tore up my legs and arms.

Walking up 6 stairs was incredibly painful and difficult.

This path in Mission Gorge was a major part of my rehabilitation.

On my last day in San Diego, I walked this path to say, "thank you." A beautiful huge orange Coyote greeted me on the path and seemed to have no fear as it bid me farewell.

Tribal Cafe Concert

This was my test concert before recording my new album. I was working out some of the lyrics and my comments, which I had too many of...

I wanted this to be a music video to post on YouTube but the director didn't like what he shot and said he wouldn't make any music videos from the concert.

Bummer. I also wanted to videotape the recording of the vocals on the END OF THE LINE album as they were being recorded at Scott's house.

Somehow, me, a UCLA film school graduate, movie industry filmmaker, professional photographer... don't have any videotapes of me.
