Dear Dr. John Carpenter,
Dear fellow Elvis fans,
Some of us have been puzzled by John's occupation: beat farmer. I remember John mentioning it was a tribute. I put my mind to work, which succeeds every now and then, and my guess is that John's occupation is a tribute to The Beat Farmers, an American cowpunk band, formed in California in the early eighties by lead singer Country Dick Montana. Mystery solved?

John, to avoid any misunderstandings, my post has no bad intentions whatsoever. Cross my heart.
Best.
