All kinds of information about many nooks and crannies of Game Theory music; it's a heck of a season for rock bios -- Elvis Costello, Carrie Brownstein, Tom Petty -- but this is the one I've been waiting for the most. Hats off to all concerned. West Anthony Sent from my magical iPhone...

I did a couple of interviews and some email exchanges with Brett as he wrote the book and it was clear he was looking to take an honest and respectful look at Scott's life and the work or Game Theory and The Loud Family and I'm confident the finished book will be a great read. The fact that someone has taken the time to get this story down while Scott's cohorts and band members were all still with us is a wonderful thing. > > It is currently #90 on the Amazon chart for it's genre with nearly all ahead of it books about major rock stars, Frank Sinatra, etc. ("Best Sellers in Composer & Musician Biographies") though it's important to note that a ton of books charted separately in that prior 89 as print books, audio books AND kindle books (with each format holding a distinct chart spot, so figure the book is at about 60 in a fairer world...it must be weird to tell your friends "hey my new book is on the Amazon best seller charts, I've charted at #'s 5, 47 and 60!!!")... > > http://www.amazon.com/Dont-All-Thank-Me-Once/dp/0692484698/ ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V10 #253 ********************************
