You MUST be joking.
drBill and Etch-A-Sketch have probably done more work in the film industry than 95% (or more) of VI-C'ers.
But really - what are you looking for?
I don't know anything about those guys or their backgrounds or who they are...and I'm way too young to even know much about any of this stuff or the history of this stuff. I was only shown your forum from some fans. How would I know their life experiences?? I just like literally joined there.
Not looking for anything but what I just asked. I explained that. Just what I literally said, so was getting another perspective and I found it super interesting, being a fan and just really started getting into Oingo Boingo a couple years ago and recently found out about all these rumors and things. As a fan with not much prior knowledge it's a bit like woah. But if I was getting private messages contradicting what was said on the other thing then yeah I was like..naturally confused. I explained that.
Plus I get mega focused on random whatever kind of topics, especially music related. Maybe I'm autistic (it's been suggested in the past). I don't know..but always been that way. There actually is no other reason apart from what I explained. I simply got contradicting messages by people I dont know anything about. And I think some might've thought I meant "orchestrators" in terms of the ghostwriting question in those messages. Private messages.
I have trouble explaining stuff sometimes.
So that was why I kept referring to and sharing the above article screenshots to explain what I was asking about and nobody seemed to reference to that. On the other board, that is.
All in all, hoping that was he said in the interview I posted attached was true and that the music isnt a lie. Again..I'm a FAN ...who just recently started really getting fully into OB and his other stuff. I dont know shit about the industry or its inner workings or good and dark sides. And I honestly had no idea where all this shit started until now...you guys covered that.
I find it a very intriguing topic to begin with. But given OB is probably quickly becoming my favorite band, I honestly just like knowing its honest music, too. It might sound obsessive! But its harmless. I'm just weird. Sorry.
Plus I had seen you all on here had some more cooler discussion on the topic in the past, via search, so ... and a couple musician fan friends said ask here. That really was it.
Plus, I know about the orchestration part. Everyones explained that. My question on there and partly here, though I added question about more discussion on the actual style of writing this time, about the stuff elfman refers to in that article I posted regarding composing..not just the orchestration.
