Saxman717 22 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Happy Father's Day everyone!I'm not a Dad (I'm 21, so I have a few more years ) but I'm sure we have some Dads on this board.Maybe this is common knowledge on this board, but......does JW have a wife and kids? Anyone have details on this?-Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo Lewis 6 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 A very big hug to Miguel Andrade, who became a father a very short time ago. His son can't congratulate him today, but if he could, I would bet every Williams CD I own that he would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jango Fett 0 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Your children waking you up in the early morning on a sunday. Showing you pictures they have drawn and keeping you out of oyur welldeserved rest?No thank you. No father's day for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Yeah, not to mention that ridiculous yellow and red tie you get as a present and have to wear cause you don't wanna hurt their feelings.Don't even get my started about the self made ashtrays. Stefancos- who does not smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Too bad my dad isn't a JW fan. I could've bought him some JW CDs for Father's Day and borrowed them off of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYPHER 1 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 Thankfully Father's Day 'Down Under' isn't for quite some time yet... (I hope). It's not that I don't love my Dad, just that the whole present-buying thing can be a bit of a pain CYPHER - who joins Ross in extending his congratulations and best wishes to Miguel.

Ollie 1,059 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 My daughter made me an ashtray 8 years ago, even though I don't smoke, and I still cherish it after all these years. Having your kid come in and wake you up on Fathers Day to show you their handmade card is one of those moments that makes a father get teary eyed.-Mark, whose kids never bought him a tie, thank god.

MrScratch 294 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 John Williams has a wife and 2 or 3 children (by his former wife Barbara Ruick, who died in 1974)He also has some grandchildren, but i dunno how many.I can't believe nobody mentioned Joseph Williams, son of JW, former member of Toto and lyricist on 'Lapti Nek'!! If memory serves, I believe he has scored a few direct-to-video movies and B-movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 In fact, i DID mention him, he is one if the children.Also, most people here know about Joseph Williams by now, i guess.Stefancos- Who watches the Joseph Williams scored Embrace Of The Vampire, starring Alyssa Milano, several times.To study the score and compare Joseph's composing skills with that of his father, off course.

MrScratch 294 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 Maybe this is common knowledge on this board, but......does JW have a wife and kids? Anyone have details on this? Stefancos, Saxman here didn't know about Joseph Williams. And speaking of JWs kids... I just did an imdb search on JW and his kin. Mark Towner Williams, his other son, was drummer for Air Supply. Did anyone else know this, because I didn't. Also noteworthy that I noticed, some of Josephs scoring assignments include films in the the Erotic Confessions saga. But then again, there are lots of talented film composers who can't even get soft-core porn films to work on... so its all relative I guess.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 I'm sure Williams is just glad that his sons are working at all.Besides, soft porn is not nearly as bad as what Williams scored in his early years.

Luke Skywalker 1,796 Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 I wonder what Williams (john) thinks about the 'movie' his son scored.I mean, every father wants to see what sons do or in what they work, dont they?Luke, who hopes Williams just heard a CD of the score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would not mess with his stuff, because it was his work. Only if he would ask my advice I would help him. Otherwise I would let him do his job, but I certaintly did study his work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
