Concert Appearance: "Scorpion Resurrection” performed by Kung Fu Cowboy
September 22, 2014.
Kulak’s Woodshed, North Hollywood, California

YouTube Video Link: Kung Fu Cowboy “Scorpion Resurrection” (Live)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVCi5ZPekYM&list=UUg28JaejKWUAmqf1q3eg2-w

“Scorpion Resurrection” was written February 2013 by Richard Del Connor, "The Hippy Coyote" of American Zen for the completed screenplay, Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie 1. Richard explained to the Kulak’s Woodshed M.C. before his performance that he hopes this song will win an Oscar for ‘Best Song in a Movie.’ “Scorpion Resurrection” is track #3 on the End of the Line album by American Zen and tells the story of his Las Vegas adventure that led him back to his San Diego homeland. Richard has been living out of his 1996 forest green Toyota Tacoma truck with a purple fiberglass shell since he left his family in Montrose, California to start a Kung Fu and Tai Chi school in Las Vegas, Christmas 2011. "We're not homeless we have cars," sings Coyote. "I need a financial injection--to complete my scorpion resurrection." The album was recorded inside his “Tacoma Studios” with Richard pretending to be all four members of American Zen, "America's first Buddhist rock band™." Recorded using a Zoom-4Hn 4-track digital recorder, (a Christmas gift from one of his Kung Fu students), this album sounds like the first albums of Led Zeppelin and Cream with Coyote performing two original instrumental flute songs similar to “Bouree” by Jethro Tull.

Richard, known as "Kung Fu Cowboy" to his fellow stagehands, was stung in the neck by a tan scorpion October 2012 while working a Brad Paisley concert at the Cricket Amphitheater near the Mexican border. Two weeks prior to this, Richard had signed a “Life Option Agreement” with Scott Karahadian to write the Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie 1 screenplay based upon his life. Unable to work or do Kung Fu, swollen Richard became a writing partner and reshaped his true life story to now include ghosts jumping out of his body to do his Kung Fu fighting for him and rescue his children.

As “Buddha Zhen,” Richard teaches Shaolin Kung Fu weapons using the same traditional martial arts dances that have been passed down from monk to monk for 1,000 years. Founder of three Kung Fu school systems: Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Gongfu, Tai Chi Youth, and Buddha Kung Fu; Richard is currently teaching at North Hollywood Park in North Hollywood, California. David Carradines’s daughter, Calista Carradine, has been a student of Buddha Kung Fu for over a year at this location. The song, "Kung Fu Cowboy 2" on the End of the Line album tells about his teaching practices and Kung Fu lifestyle.

Feature Story Themes:
Homeless life in North Hollywood, California.
First rock album recorded in a car?
New law in Los Angeles allows Coyote to legally sleep on street in his car.
Stung by scorpion working Brad Paisley concert as stagehand causes screenplay rewrite with ghosts.
Teaching Shaolin Kung Fu and Yang Tai Chi (Richard is disciple of Wong Jack Man who beat up Bruce Lee).
Coyote is a one-man band pretending to be 4 musicians, singing with 4 character voices plus a girl’s voice on new album.

About American Zen
American Zen is The Hippy Coyote who fronts the band on flute and electric guitar. Coyote is the "Kung Fu Cowboy" who studies Shaolin Kung Fu, and with his recent record, LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 2 has become the world's most astounding musician playing drums, electric bass, slide guitars, electric guitars, flute, harmonica, and a variety of other instruments and percussion. Coyote no longer performs or records acoustic guitar, since losing his Alvarez 12-string on December 3, 2009. However, with hundreds of songs recorded with his acoustic guitar since 1974, Coyote says he prefers his Marshall amplifier and wah-wah pedal now. All songs, lyrics, and poetry are composed by The Hippy Coyote, who has also written the novel, SID'S PLACE, and created the websites for each LEVEL of American Zen's ascent toward Heaven on their Zen Buddhist journey to Nirvana.

About Buddha Zhen
Zhen Shen-Lang "Truth Spirit-Wolf" or Spirit Wolf of Truth (The Chinese always put last name first.)
Buddha Zhen was recognized for his teaching skills while an Advanced Student of Tai Mantis Federation in early 1980s. However, Buddha Zhen, then known as Richard O'Connor, even passed up opportunities to perform with David Carradine, only considering his Shaolin Kung Fu to be a hobby. After moving to Utah in 1991, unable to find work in the record business or movie business, Kung Fu and Tai Chi became the only way for Buddha Zhen to support himself in Utah while being a Mr. Mom to two kids. Shaolin Chi Mantis was founded in 1992 and in 1996 Master Zhen created the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity organization for troubled youth. Buddha Zhen founded the Buddha Kung Fu school in 2008 which includes the Buddha Tai Chi, Shaolin Kids , and 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp programs.
