GOAT Composer John Williams Greeted Two Fans That Were Playing The Star Wars Theme Outside Of His House
Billboard- Two musicians have earned a greeting from legendary Hollywood film composer John Williams by playing his theme from Star Wars outside of his Los Angeles home. A video posted on YouTube by Michael Miller shows him playing the famous theme on flugelhorn alongside 13-year-old trumpet player Bryce Hayashi on the sidewalk in front of Williams’ home. The performance drew the composer to his door, and he later walked down to shake hands with the musicians. The 84-year-old Williams joked that he didn’t think the teen would be able to hit the high notes, but he did.
Pretty awesome move by John Williams here, going out and greeting a couple of fans that were able to pull of that ridiculous high note. But while it was nice of John, this has to be the dumbest thing I have ever seen someone do. John, bubby, you are the GOAT when it comes to movie songs. Sure these kids showed some stones just showing up to your house and playing one of the billions of incredible scores you’ve written. But what you just did in this video is give every asshole with an instrument the green light to start playing music outside your house and acting like John Cusack in that 80s movie I never watched. And there is no shortage of bangers in the John Williams catalog. Jaws, ET, Superman, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Home Alone, allllll the great Star Wars songs. Shit, I’m about to out on my Eli jersey and start playing the NFL on NBC song on loop just because that shit bangs all year long.
Now I’m ready to fight anyone or anything after hearing that song. Just kidding, I’m ready to sit on my couch and and cry about a fantasy football loss I had as I mindlessly watch the last three hours of an NFL Sunday. Yet I can’t wait until those days come back. Until then, I need a camera setup outside of John Williams’ house just to see how many kids escape band camp to play a few bars for their hero.
Also, I still can’t believe they wasted Duel of the Fates and Darth Maul on The Phantom Menace. That’s even worse than wasting the good surprise on Sonny in Big Daddy.
P.S. FUCK Jar Jar Binks.
