Do composers (= John Williams in this case) read reviews?

I mean, of their own works, like cd reviews and such? I've just been thinking, how cool it would be for John Williams to visit this board - I mean, he could probably 'learn a few things' from what we think of his works... Just a thought.

We have been told many times that Williams does not use computers, do emails, or go online much at all, if ever.

However, since we have made such stinks with our petitions and Weebo gave him that long collective "thank you" note, I'm sure he knows about us and this site. (Speaking of Weebo, where is that guy? I miss him...)

No doubt all the composers know about FSM, too (they HAVE to). But do they read it?

You'd have to be insecure to not read it, they should be interested in what people are saying about them if they are not insecure!

I would hope that he would never come here and see any of my negative comments. He's a great artist and one of my childhood heroes. I would hate to be responsible for giving him a complex, or even making him feel bad for a single moment, because of any criticism I may have levelled against him, here among friends. I always see this place as a bunch of guys (and girls) sitting around the living room with a table full of beers, buffalo wings, and a DVD player. Armchair criticism, and nothing more.

actually both work in this case.

Joe, who wouldn't care if John knew I don't like the score from Hook.

I note from your use of a lower case "a" in "actually" that you suffer from an inferiority complex. :biglaugh:

No, no, in your case I intentionally used ILLusions instead of DE-lusions. Think about it.

Oh, and please refrain from this 'old bean' stuff. It sounds a bit gayish.

Bye,

It sounds a bit gayish.

Is this a SLUR, my good man?! You can definitely expect to hear from my lawyer.

Figo, shocked, simply shocked by Roald's brazen insensitivity.

What's a SLUR, buddy?

Calling something "gayish," for example. Of course, there's always the dictionary, if you can figure it out.

No. Just Figo.

BUT, can we end this guys? I have nothing against gay people or Great Britain.

Bye,

Roald - still puzzled the SLUR...

I think that would be SO neat if JW actually visited here.

my question to you is: do you think he visits this site at all?

When DKrall.com was up and running Diana and her sister used to come on and post and they would know all the regular posters and chat with them every once and a while.

hmm

James Horner posted on the Hornershrine and said that his kids read it all the time. That was pretty cool, although I feel sorry for the guy though... his fans are a bunch of hypersensitive loons that make us hypersensitive pansies seem like macho tough guys... :mrgreen:

-Chris, Who misses his battles with the infamous purple one on that board...

I wonder if John Williams even has a computer, since most of his composing is still done with a pencil. I would suggest the music program Finale to him, but I think it's too late to catch up for him in the digital era.

Maybe his son comes over once and a while and prints the most nice topics...

That's probably ok for Horner, he looks like a hypersensitive loony pansy anyway.
