This has to be the best christmas display I've ever seen. I'm just glad I don't live next door. Make sure your sound is on so you can hear the music.

[Byrdman]

Cool. That will almost make ya toss yer egg nog..

 

[flapbreaker]

I think the music is done by the siberian orchestra. Not sure what tune though.

 

[CatyMae n Steve]

WONDERFUL!!

 

[Salty Dog]

SWEET!!! The music is by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Just saw them in concert last Wednesday. Talk about a group that knows how to put on a good show. Highly recommend seeing them if they come the way of any fellow Brats. Their light show is AWESOME!!! This dude did a marvelous job of putting that light show together. All in the Trans-Siberian Orchestra fashion.

SWEET!!! The music is by Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

They performed 2 days ago on one of the major TV network's morning show. They truly have TALENT! Cellos, Violins, Guitars, Piano, Keyboards, Drums, and multi-racial, ethnic, gender, performers, etc!. (....and I'm just a rednecked country boy that primarily listens to songs about momma, trains, broken hearted lovers :love , trucks, d-i-v-o-r-c-e, daddy's little girl songs... :roll: ....) of course with a musically inclined daughter, our musical appreciation has expanded tremendously. :thup

Great Job!! The Tran-Siberian outfit reminds me a lot of Mannheim Steamroller, of whom I have been a fan of since their early days circa 1979.

The piece is Wizards in Winter.

The piece is Wizards in Winter.

Fitting...

If I had a PLC and a few more circuits.... and a Bose sound system.... and time.... and money.... and Tyboo converted my angler sette to a forward facing barber chair....

Nope, nice to dream though

 

[Jimbo]

I understand that the guys 14 year old daughter built the program to match the music to the lights.

Yes, but why do they have the Mercedes Benz emblem in their Christmas display? :lol: :lol:

 

[dave]

Pat,

I guess you are not old enough to remember. It is a Peace Sign.

[Moldy]

[Pat Anderson]

Dave - I graduated from college in 1968, if that tells you anything about my age - you might have missed the :lol: :lol: emoticons right after the Mercedes emblem comment!!

Pat,

[dave]

Pat,

I should have graduated in 1967, but graduated quite a bit later due to life. I never got to be a hippy, because I was too busy working hard. I am now getting ready to work hard at playing!

There's a neat site that describes how this was done and a video from the Today show with the family. Pretty amazing hobby, makes the neighborhood a bit busy though.
