You should have just had him show up completely uncredited. I guess there's still time to just give Buckley a "Danny Elfman" placard at the table.

Looks like a cool and unique lineup, Peter!
One of the best parts of these events is getting exposed to newer composers. I've found some great new music through past FFM gatherings.
It's great to see the fan favorites, of course. But, I really like hearing from some of the newer folks out there, and to see what their experiences have been.
My mom's coming out again, of course.
Can't wait!
I couldn't agree more. There has also been a few composers I wasn't very familiar with either so I get that too! So glad she's coming and hope she recovers completely by then. She's such a sweetie pie, love her!

Welcome Lolita Ritmanis !
And one of the scores she worked on as an orchestrator is Under Siege 2. Actually seeing her name on the original album release of that soundtrack was my first exposure of her. So now when Varése Sarabande released the expanded Under Siege 2 I guess she will probably sign a lot of copies of that score.

Hey Back Lot Music,
If you've gone to the trouble of actually producing physical copies of GET OUT, why not just sell them on the market, where you can make actual money. There are a lot of people who can't make a trip to Arizona. Put them on Amazon and make them available to even more people. Just a thought.
