Thaxton Completely agree. Going to someone's home is crossing the line. I know these guys had only the best best intentions, but sorry, this is over the line.

Hey, it's a lot less rude than what they did on Hans Zimmer's front lawn... But on a serious note, I don't think there's anything wrong with this because they were neighbors. It's just like going to meet your neighbor, only they're playing his music instead of ringing the doorbell. If they weren't neighbors that stunt would not be cool. The only really weird thing is the fact that they were taping it. That wasn't so cool. Also they may have interrupted him humming an amazing new theme for Part VIII, which may now be lost to the annals of time.

Not at all , It shows the humbleness and enagement John Williams has with his fans and it clearly comes accross in the video . He's a very kind and gentle soul, but that doesn't change the fact that showing up on his lawn and pulling this stunt is just RUDE and to be honest making it as public as they have doesn't nothing to respect the man's PRIVACY.

As someone who cares deeply about composers and their lives, it is NEVER okay to show up to their house uninvited, film that encounter and then post it online. Every part of that is a disrespectful, and potentially dangerous, invasion of their privacy. Motives don't make it alright. Living in the neighborhood doesn't make it alright. Having the outcome of one particular encounter appear to having been handled graciously doesn't make it alright. Celebrities, including composers, are people first. Their homes are off limits. ALWAYS. --Richard Kraft

ALWAYS. --Richard Kraft You are an agent, so clearly you have the perspective of being on the defensive. But honestly, you are blowing this way out of proportion. First off, if you want to get down to the specifics, they were not on his property, they were on the sidewalk. If Mr. Williams was not happy about this he surely wouldn't have come outside to greet them. I would have just stayed inside and played as if I wasn't home. They have more balls than I do! Unless these guy's go around telling people where to find Williams I saw this as totally harmless. Honestly, Mr. Williams may be the greatest living composer, but he is just a human being just like you and I. Not some Greek god. They uploaded the video to YouTube - they didn't start contacting other news outlets. Did any of you think that either of them might take this positive memory and become a player in a film/tv orchestra? Wouldn't that be great for them? Nah, I guess they are just trouble makers, right? When Christmas carolers sing outside your house is that an invasion of privacy? When the jehovah witness knocks on your door is that an invasion of privacy?
