Today we got a letter addressed to our intern (in that it said: “Attn: Intern”), the return address claimed it was from Prisoner #19401-112, Federal Prison Camp, 4000 Victory Road, Lompoc, CA. 93436, USA. It was a request for our intern to check out the prisoner’s band. As asked, we passed it on to Amanda, our intern with a nose-ring. Here is their correspondence.

Dearest Humble Intern,

All of the music on this CD was written during my eleven year prison sentence for drug manufacturing. The original analog recordings were recorded against all odds at Lompoc Federal Prison complex in California. As all recording whatsoever is strictly forbidden in prison, the sound is very raw and is very real and the images are dark, but so is prison and such is life.

This CD is dedicated to all who have had to overcome oppression of any kind and triumphed over their adversity.

We are calling on the underground to take our music viral

Thanx!

Tiger W

To my dearest “Tiger W”

Unfortunately the underground will not be answering your call today, simply because every one of your songs seems to sound the same. If the first track was astounding that would be sweet, but alas, it’s not. Also, I’m not sure about writing lyrics about your trousers, I know prison is boring, but perhaps you should still look beyond your crotch for inspiration.
