I've told this story around here before, but several years ago some friends and I attended a "Surrealist Parlor Games Night" hosted by Roger Miller. We all assumed going in that he was just the celebrity host the venue landed, but he was really into it-- he'd give the rules for each game, then go from table to table to see how everyone was doing. I guess it's just something he loves doing and hosts periodically in different venues around Boston.

@those following the MoB thread - in the late oughts I went to see MoB in my former home town of Kalamazoo, MI. Before the show I stopped at the Bell's Brewery general store to pick up some brewskis to take home with me. Roger Miller was also there. I was about to go up to talk to him to tell him how much I admired his music. As I approached he was talking to the clerk and I heard Roger say "I'm a beer bigot." I thought that was about the greatest thing I could have heard and left it at that.
