Ideally, I'd put the performers in the "artist" tag and the composer in "composer". But unfortunately, the ID3 system, and even more most software using it, seems to have been created mostly by people unfamiliar with the concept of music being first written by a composer and then performed by different artists, so usually "artist" means composer and writer and performer at the same time. My player software even has a feature where I could define that for certain genres, the albums are filed under the composer instead of the artist for regular sorting, but unfortunately, I've never been very careful with genre tagging, and I'm not going to re-tag 800GBs worth of music. It would probably cause problems with most other software anyway.
 
So I usually put the "musician(s) of primary import" in the artist tag, and sometimes fill in composer and performer tags as well when relevant. For works of which I have (or expect to have) multiple recordings (mainly classical), I often put the important performers (usually conductor or primary soloist) in parantheses in the title; sometimes also the year (especially when I have multiple recordings by the same performer). For soundtrack re-releases and expansions, I also put the label or "complete" or "expanded" in the title, unless it's the only version I have.
 
None of this is relevant for the Williams concert, because Williams as the artist and the correct title ("John Williams in Vienna" and "John Williams Live in Vienna", respectively) is perfectly sufficient.
 
For classical recordings, I used to put the full roster of performres in the "comments" tag, but stopped doing that years ago when (I think) my ripping software started having problems with it. I never resumed doing that, which is unfortunate, because it means I can't search for individual performers in my collection.

But this is the JW subforum

Exactly. That's what Ron Grainer wrote. 

None of what you described makes sense because none of those sentences contained the word "and" in the first place. 

Better delete the whole thing and get Bernstein's original!
 
 
I wasn't aware you're a Giacchino fan. What's the best tracks you've got to recommend for someone who's not that familiar with the composer?

Indiana, let it go. 

Total War Troy is released today and is free for its first 24 hours at Epic Games Store.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra. 
 
Not to be confused with the musical group of crossdressing Russians, the Siberian Trans Orchestra. 

Unless it's a comparable box set of the Star Wars OT, I think nothing. LaLaLand just blew their last load this year. 

Fantastic! 

Bought this cool, geeky set of coasters yesterday for 3 EUR  (game cartridge is there just for fun and size comparison)
 

I got Roller Coaster Tycoon Classic for mobile. Whenever I had a computer, I'd always have a copy of RCT, but I haven't computed for a while now.
 

 
I was hesitant to even try it because I figured I'd hate the touch controls, but for six bucks, I figured what the hell. I've got nothing better to do in these Coronian times. As soon as it started up, I was amazed how it was literally the PC game. More specifically, it's a modified RCT2 with the scenarios from the original game in addition to the second.
 
The touch interface was flawless as far as porting a PC game designed to be played with a mouse. Not perfect, but about as good as they could have gotten it. The various annoyances that came with the mouse controls in the original versions are carried over. I have to admit that after playing it obsessively for days, my hands are sore and I can't look at the real world. But it's been worth it.
 
RCT is deceptively simple. It looks super charming and because it's not a technically demanding game by any stretch of the imagination, it was always playable on even the shittiest of PCs. This is to its credit. Clunky 3D games including RCT3 were awful. Replaying the old scenarios, it's amazing how much I can still get into it. You go into a grueling 3-4 year scenario possibly dreading it, struggling to stay afloat, yet you end up spending so much time with the park just staring at it and scrolling around and putting so much effort into it, you grow attached to the thing. You know, like what was supposed to happen with Tamagatchis but never did.
 
So, we know the game is a classic and holds up. What's changed besides the controls? Well, the game looks better than I remember it. It's formatted for my superwide phone screen and looks totally awesome. There is now a feature where you can fast-forward the game, which is crazy. A year in the game takes about an hour, so this really comes in handy when you want to just skip ahead into the future.
 
I noticed that there was something off about the guests and my staff. They seemed to be wrecking my shit. The game always had various bugs, including idiot janitors seemingly drawn to walking around queue lines where they aren't needed. Dumbasses. It still happens, but I was becoming especially annoyed by my janitors that had patrol areas set and seemed to just be ignoring the puke and trash everywhere. A glitch? Possibly. I've resorted to manually dispatching a guy to various messes.
 
This brings me to the guests. These little fuckers are like Antifa kids. They vandalize everything, puke and throw trash everywhere. You have to be very active with cleaning the park since seemingly everyone in the game gets sick and pukes after a ride now. The janitors weren't helping matters ignoring the messes while Antifa destroyed all my benches, trash cans and lamp posts. Assholes.
 
To be fair, these issues were there in the original game and 2 addressed them with guests less prone to getting sick and first aid rooms. Come to think of it, I wouldn't have minded if the scenarios from the first game were redone to feature elements from 2 that legitimately improved operations, such as ATM machines.

This guy completes the Eventide quest without actually activating it - he never touches the ground.  Incredible.
 
 

I check for updates on the Pittsburgh show from time to time. It's still postponed with no new date, and I have not been refunded yet. 

I nominate this as the best gif in the history of JWFan.

No it's not. 

A new problem for Nolan. Tenet's runtime is too long for China. Due to COVID-19 reopening measures, people can no longer spend more than two hours in the theatre. Tenet's runtime is 150 minutes.

Aww jeez. 
 
Seriously bummed. 

It's hilarious that you posted this in Other Topics on a film music forum.

Of all the comparisons 😂
