leeallen01 2,179 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Coming all the way from England does make me want to at least say a simple hello and to get an autograph, but I doubt that will happen at all, so seeing him Conduct is good enough for me. That being said, if there's a chance to get an autograph then I will kick a small child out of the way to get to him. I don't care if you are a cute little 5 year old boy who recently started piano lessons so he can "be like John Williams some day." That kid doesn't know what it's like to fly to a country that doesn't possess the proper English tea making facilities. By the concert I would have been in the U.S. for 4 days already, so I would just be hitting the worst of the withdrawal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoring noises, "is this Star Wars?", "is THIS Star Wars?" and the whole bit.People talking in concerts makes my blood boil. At a pixar concert I saw last year, two women sat next to me and were having a full, concert-long conversation about their day, which included shopping for food, how the buses are noisy in London, how comfy their chairs were at home, despite being told to shut up by everyone.No love for the Rolling Boulder in Raiders?Or the Death StarsHow did I not think of that!?

Smeltington 1,583 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Blarg John Williams regretfully has had to cancel his upcoming appearances with the Boston Pops, May 22 and 23, due to a back ailment that requires him to rest and limit travel over the next few weeks. Please note, the program will remain the same. Richard Kaufman will conduct these performances. Among his many accomplishments, Richard Kaufman is the Principal Pops Conductor of the Pacific Symphony, the Pops Conductor Laureate of the Dallas Symphony, and is celebrating his tenth season at the helm of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s film concert series “CSO at the Movies.” As a friend and colleague of John Williams, Mr. Kaufman has appeared as a violinist on many of Mr. Williams’s film sound tracks over the years.

Was about to post that...Man, I'm really bummed out by this Could this be the same health issue that caused him to cancel his January performance? I was really hoping to see him this year, it was probably the only chance I'll ever get to see him in person... I'll still go to the concert, as the trip is already paid for and all, but still..

Balahkay 629 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well, that's disappointing. This could be related to his health issues earlier this year. I wish him a speedy recovery in any case. I'm sure he deserves the rest after the work he's done (and still has to do) for TFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 39,584 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well, if people are still planning going..... Only a couple weeks away now. Jay, are we doing Uno again? You know, as much as going to a lame chain restaurant is with all the great food the city has to offer, it really is the best location being right across from Symphony Hall + giving us that private room for the entire time. So yes, I think we should once again. Or maybe we could do one restaurant Friday and another Saturday? Who is going to both nights? Let's a get a list started I'm going FRIDAY, plus I'm going SATURDAY with one guest (Marcy) Though I might try to sell our tickets now that J Dubs isn't attending. We'll see.

Thor 8,431 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Ouch, that sucks about Williams, especially from those who travel in from overseas. I don't know how I would have reacted if this had happened last year.It's worth nothing that Williams also took almost the whole of 1988 off due to back injuries (at least as far as public appearances are concerned), so it's something he's had for a while. Comes and goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,420 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Sure, but he has had to cancel a concert earlier this year because of health reasons, and Bridge Of Spies, presumably....Not a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,420 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 If I had booked for Boston I would have probably have to cancel because of my own health. I can barely make it to the shop without needing a rest, much less endure a 10 hour flight and all the stuff associated with a holiday.I hope Tanglewood will go though and that both me and JW will be there.

As Thor said, JW already had back ailments in the past. Now, at 83 years old, he must surely think very well about how to spend his energies. Plus, he's deep at work on a certain film score...
