Favoriting April 17, 2013: RIP Scott Miller (Game Theory/The Loud Family)

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

Scott Miller, of Game Theory and The Loud Family, passed away on Monday; I learned about it during the show tonight. The last two hours of this show are an impromptu tribute to his memory, and a celebration of the amazing music he left with us. You can read the post on loudfamily.com.

It's remarkable how many commenters without accounts aren't even listening to the show.

Goodnight Sweet Cheri, I just asked Kenzo for a way us to vote you off the island by IP-address.

Beautiful tribute, Evan. Keep 'em coming. BTW, www.loudfamily.com is offering a free download of six vintage Game Theory albums, and anyone who's become a Scott Miller fan tonight can dig deeper there.

I would like to say that, as someone who wasn't so exposed to Scott Miller's music during his life, but was a great fan of what I'd heard, I'm at least grateful to hear this show and all these great songs. Clearly a brilliant songwriter.

Sorry to check in so late, I wrote to Sue Trowbridge to send condolences. I only know some Game Theory from my old college radio days etc. but I always liked what I heard. I need to really catch up. I intend to read Scott's book as well as soon as I can order a copy. Sorry to hear such awful news.

P.S. meant to say thanks for playing all this Scott and other related music not a bad track in the bunch!! I just don't hear music like this on radio enough these days. Only some of the dudes on WFDU play any of the 80s bands anymore, besides WFMU.
