Dear Peter,
Remember when I surprised you in your office, and your kids were in there? And you showed me your Walt Frazier bobblehead? And your midi keyboard? And your view of some backhattan corridor? Here, this was that visit…
A few weeks ago, you wrote a great song for me. I know you also like to write songs for antiquated physical structues, like bricked castles.
On a recent trip to Maine, I passed a huge open field where I expected to see a massive old prison I remembered. Where was the prison? They had completely torn it down since the last time I was there, and relocated all 400 prisoners to a new “Supermax” facility one town over.
Anyway, Peter, I’m pretty sure the town officials left this corner of their monstrous prison standing so that you’d write a song about it. Maybe you will write a song about it. We can post that song here and on Twitch. Then we can grab some speakers from Andy Payor, invite NPR, invite the people of Thomaston, and blast your song next to this structure.
And then we shall feel whole again.
Thank you for your time. Peter Kay.
Yours Truly,
Ross
