    Hey guys, if you like Danny Elfman....

    I'm his third cousin. If anyone likes any songs or themes he has created, such as the Simpson's opening theme, or music from Nightmare Before Christmas, I'm sure I can get permission from him to use it on FFR. Idk, sounds pretty good to me.

        Lol, i think i was twelve when i found out, that was like 6 years ago, when my dad got invited to one of his get togethers or something like that. I'll talk to my grandmother about it, she's met him quite a few times and keeps in touch with him. Let me see if i can get his email address from her. And emccky, ill talk to Ld when i actually have permission. Don't wanna get my hopes up for nothing.

                I remember his name in the credits for doing the music in the Spiderman movies. Danny Elfman's worked on music for everything.

                Pretty cool that you're related. If we managed to get something together, awesome. See what he's composed that's steppable.

                  *cough THE RECENT CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY MOVIE AS WELL AS HARRY POTTER cough*

                  Wow... that was a bad cough... I should go see the doctor.

                  PS Danny Elfman is a musical genius. He also did MiB if I remember correctly. Truly excellent.

                      Hmm lemme manage to dig up his email. Oh, heres what he's done in his career...

                      Great stuff. I'm not too sure whats steppable or not. You guys can dispute that.

                        Danny Elfman had nothing to do with Harry Potter. John Williams did all the music for that series up until this most recent one where Patrick Doyle stepped in. Williams is still credited for the main theme though. All your other references are correct.
                        At least I'm not Mike Lean.

                          Yea, sorry about that. I was mistaken and I didn't realize it until just a bit ago. I was hoping no one would call me on it though haha.
