Everybody Needs A Ninja

I have the good fortune in life to have access to lots of very, very talented people. It’s my pleasure to be able to bring their works together and present them as best as I can. In this case, I present the music of podsafe music superstar Matthew Ebel and the martial talents of Stephen K. Hayes and many of his senior students demonstrating their skills at the SKH Quest Fall Festival in Dayton, OH.

    It’s not Tishiro Mifune, but it’s pretty damn awesome anyway.

    I absolutely enjoyed this video and the music from Matthew. I want to share an interesting cycle of connections with you regarding this.

    In this cycle of friendship relating to this video:
    I know a guy in Nashville that plays music and coordinates his marketing projects with a friend in Boston.

    The guy in Boston studies with a martial arts master in Dayton.

    That martial arts master is also the instructor to a friend of mine for whom I also happen to play bass in a band called “The Fries” in Dayton.

    I find the connection remarkable and amazing.

    OK, c’mon, Chris, when is there going to be a “Music and the Ninja” podcast? The groundwork is all there… Virtual Hot Wings, the space angle on High Orbit, and now this amazing video. Of course, the combined awesomeness of you and Ebel might be too great for this universe to handle.

    It’s amazing to see such extremely talented and creative people coming together to build something, if only a video. Bravo.

    That was a great video. It was enjoyable to watch, the music was good, and the footage was a treat in comparison to the crappy quality of web video these days.

    Woo!

    This is by far and away my kid’s new favorite song. And it was great to tell them that my friend, the Ninja was the inspiration!

    This is a great video, Chris. Love the juxtaposition of the children’s songs with the very “adult” techniques. The grace and thought control that is in evidence here is extremely impressive. Thanks for sharing.

    I just had to say that it’s a bit refreshing to see the honorable Mr. Mahoney taking one for the team ;) . Lord know he’s delivered a gift or two to myself in that past. ;)

    And the song is just great. Whether they know it or not everybody really does need a ninja heh. Although it’s a bit difficult to relate to the words. I’ve been guilty of not only leaving a star or 2 behind, but also the occasional tooth, clump of hair, one tabi, and on occasion even a few bits of my spleen (again thanks to the honorable Mr. Mahoney.)

    NINPO IKKAN!!

    Best regards
