Flexmoney Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I thought that was pretty cool. And, It would have to be easier and cheaper... ("Shows on the hour from 7-10 o'clock" for instance.) My girlfriend has an uncle that does his house "old school". It is usually on the news every year. Hanging lights like that takes up time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huston in Austin Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I was on Snopes.com looking for somthing else, when lo and behold. The Chistmas light display was there. They also had the display to another song as well. They didn't say for sure if it was real or not, but still cool. Huston in Austin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pac1911 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Interesting story about these lights. I caught an interview on the radio today with the director of the trans siberian orchestra. The song in the video is called winter wizards and it is recorded by trans siberian orchestra. Apparently they got wind of this video on the web and did some investigating. Basic premis is a guy bought the lights and equipment so that the lights are timed to whatever music is played. This setup would elikesomething found at a fancy night club or at a rock concert. He added 16,000 strings of light and a 1 watt FM transmitter. He posted a sign in front of his house that says "please tune to XX.xFM and enjoy." You blast the music he is broadcasting from his home in your car and watch the lights flash perfectly in time. His neighorhood has been having a lights competition for years. This is the second year he has done this setup. He said the most noticeable reaction from the neighborhood is that his house was the only one with lights this year! Trans siberian orchestra was pretty impressed with the whole set up and apparently the concept includingtheir music is being considered by advertisers, so this might not be the last of you see. This guy lives in ohio.....Flex? I thought you folks might be interested in the real scoop. pc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobert1 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) 8047 Winding Creek Ct - Mason, Ohio The Today show had an interview with the family this am. The sounds is only broadcast over a low band FM freq. That way the neighbors don't go insane. You just tune your car radio to the posted freq and enjoy.

The incident was a minor 2-car wreck in the area (no one was hurt) but emergency vehicles could not get to them. I'm not sure if the responders knew about the lack of injuries or not. Great light show and good music! Edited December 10, 2005 by 1911user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
