RyanJL Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Kevin,Great sequencing and decorating. My kids have enjoyed your videos for the past few years. This year you just really took it off the charts with the CCR and RGBs. Wow! Congrats on the TV gigs. Fortunately or unfortunately you've now set the bar even higher for the rest of us.

However, that rule IS lifted for criteria such as Halloween and Christmas Displays. After Halloween the LED sign comes out of the living room window that announces my FM station to turn to until Thanksgiving night when it goes back up for the Christmas season.We lived in an HOA previously, they had the same rules, BUT at least any signs were overlooked during BIG Holidays like Halloween and Christmas, even other Holidays where folks would post a sign for a day or two. Seems to me that Chris Palmers' HOA is a bit narrow minded by even sending out such a notice! What about the "Happy Halloween signs" that are staked into a yard? Guess those would be required to be yanked up to by their rules. This is why the next place I move to ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT HAVE a HOA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can bring it by tomorrow to get it all set up and test it. I PM'ed you my contact info. Give me a call.Dino - KX6D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLD Kevin Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 Hey Everyone,I haven’t been here for a couple of days. Its almost 1am and seems to be the only chance I have time to post. I’m very tired. Working my normal job, and then getting ready for the madness at night. Every night the crowd gets bigger. Tuesday we had about 1000 people, Wed about 1500 people...and tonight...2000 people. If you think about it...how many cars is that?? We shut the streets down in front of my house an hr before the show and cars are parked up and down the streets which seems like forever.I run my show via outdoor speakers. I ask everyone to park their vehicles and watch in front. This way, the streets don’t turn into a parking lot. People would stop and not move on. I only run the show once a night...6 songs...24 mins. Yesterday, my outdoor speakers blow in the middle of the show. It was kinda funny...it was cranking then you hear a big pop. Thanksfully all the people were very calm...and lucky I had a spare. Today I bought some DJ speakers. I got a really good price because the sales person saw my show on youtube and really wanted to see it but didn’t know the address. I guess being internet famous does get you stuff.So tonight , the police were called out tonight due to people parking their cars in front of driveways and some of my neighbors...down the street....selling food and parking spaces. You need to permit to do that. Some people…anything to make a buck!Tomorrow is the beginning of the weekend and I'm expecting it to get worse. I may need to shut my show down if we have more incidents. It just getting too big. My neighbors are helping "police" the streets so there are no more problems. I have really great neighbors...and hopefully they will still like me.Here is a picture from my wife’s camera phone from tonight’s show....pretty cool!! You cant really see from the picture, there are more people to the left and right of the house in the street. My sis took pics with a better camera and I should have them by tomorrow.Kevin Attached files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santas Helper Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Holy crap, is that a TSO concert?:shock:Oh, it's Kevin's awesome display. I'm glad you have understanding neighbors. Mine would have been pissed the first night. Bunch of grumpy farts in my area.Great job Kevin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forum is to share what people do and I seriously doubt this was done out of disrespect.I understand what your saying but the approach was more of a hijack and not just a comment of Kevin's display, which is the topic at hand.Jkonicky should have started his own thread if he wanted to show off the videos IMHO. He would have gotten alot more attention that way as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
