The Black Family Light Show

11/30/2022

Well, after 15 years we have decided to throw in the towel and end our show. We know this news may be disappointing to many people and hope you can appreciate our descision.

Costs, maintenance, programming time, and labor are factors in this descision sure, though we would now just like to visit other shows instead, and spend more time together as a family viewing other people's hard work.

We would still be happy to answer questions and help you get started with your own shows.

Our vendors can't seem to get products that last more than a season, if that even. Repairs need to be made and parts can't be obtained.

Many others in this hobby are also seeing issues and even a few fires. As much as we would like to continue the show this year, it's just not worth burning the house down by using products we can't trust. Several of our pixels are showing signs of burning. Replacements are failing during testing. It's all part of the hobby, for safety we plan to wait for better production products to be available.

The smiles on the kids faces certainly make us consider chancing it however, we don't believe there will be a show this year.

Well that's a wrap, we beat the snow today and were able to get most of the yard items brought back inside.

Thanks for stopping by and all the nice comments! Merry Christmas everyone and a happy new year!

Someone asked, what does the programming side of things look like. Well, not much in the beginning. After a few hours of zooming in and out, clicking here and there, adding this and that it finally starts to look like something.

This quick snapshot of Hark the Angels is after 7+ hours and I am still not done. Most of that time is syncing the singing faces to the lyrics. I have added what is currently completed to the show and will keep working on it over the next few days.

Check out the videos posted by other exterior lighting enthusiasts in the videos section of xLights.org for more details. Come join us on the bright and blink side :-)
