David Carradine’s Tai Chi Workout for Beginners
David Carradine’s Tai Chi Workout for Beginners While the title might seem like something more likely to be found on one of Letterman’s Top 10 Lists (”Future Careers of movie Has-Beens” or “Reasons to Wear Pajamas in Public”), David Carradine’s Tai Chi Workout for Beginners is nothing if not completely serious. Carradine narrates and helps a certified tai chi instructor lead three students through the Chen style, considered by some to be the original style of tai chi. Against an ever-changing (and distracting) nature video backdrop, the 60-minute tape breaks the exercises into sections: “Opening the Gates” loosens and warms major joints; “Specific Health” movements relieve headaches or soothe joints, for instance; “Stillness” harnesses the mind’s powers; “Linkage” shows how to combine the moves; and in “Coil & Flow” you see how it’s supposed to look once you know what you’re doing. It’ll take repeated viewings to master this ancient and complicated martial art- -the number one reason to own this video. –Valerie J. Nelson
Customer Review: David Carradine’s Star Trek
This has got to be the worst video I have ever seen. The ever changing back ground made me feel like I was watching a Star Trek movie. It looked like they were being beamed around everywhere. At times I felt sea sick. I was really looking forward to this tape. How disappointing it is.

Nothing to Say
This is an alt-country-shanty by The Mulligrubs–the band I play bass in. They let me play piano, too, sometimes. We're playing a show tonight in Boston, MA. There's more examples of our smoothness on our MySpace page. The show is tonight, Sunday 1/13, 9PM, at Harper's Ferry, opening for our good friends The Globs. There's also another band there, too. I forget who. Come see a MeFite on stage if you're in the Allston/Brighton/Cambridge environs.
Stripped to the Bone
A song written by my good friend Dylan Jones, as performed by my band - the Goddamn Handclaps. Our version of it has a rickety sort of twang to it that was not present in the mean Tom Waits-y version that Dylan used to perform. Also, this version is sort of a result of a game of musical telephone. The other Handclap, Stewart, who sings lead, has never heard Dylan's version of the song - he's only heard MY version of it, and I haven't heard Dylan's version in nearly 10 years.
Modern Love
Wherein I decide to do weird things to my favorite Bowie song as I learn how to use Garage Band. I love this, but my wife can't stand it. So it's, well, polarizing.

Change Your Plans
I think this has potential, I just don't really know where to go with it. So for the moment, I'm posting it and moving on.

Um, here's a song I wrote in my bedroom/basement. I still need to mess with the levels a bit.
