I've got about 20 running and still have about 20 others to get updated to this year's setup. Something tells me I'm gonna run out of lighting days before I run out of songs to finish.

In setting up the shows, what do y'all tend to do in setting up your shows with list of over... say 10 songs/sequences? Do you segment them into xx minutes shows, or let them run?

I am brainstorming for the upcoming year, and have thought of running shows of five to six songs that would follow a theme (Christmas Vacation, Polar Express, Trans Siberian, Steamroller, etc.) and alternate them between the days so that it isn't a steady diet of the same old beans. Maybe a fifteen to twenty mintue show every hour.

This has probably been covered before dozens of times. Please forgive my laziness to go look!!

Geez - I hate it when someone asks forgiveness before I even get a chance to rag on them. Oh well...

In answer to your question, I let my shows loop from their start time until their end time. Once I get all my music involved, I usually run two or even three different shows per night. Early, the emphasis is on kids and Christmas. The middle show is approx 50-50 Christmas and other. The late show is approx 80% other and 20% Christmas.

I like your idea of different "theme" shows.

I have added 3 new ones so far for this year and have probably 7 or 8 others that are in various stages of progress.
I may get 1 or 2 more done for this year and slide them in but no big deal if not.

In this hobby it is never finished and there will always be just one more song that we try to get done!

Currently, I have 16 in my show, and have been working on 2 or 3 more.

But I have worked and re-worked one song - "I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day" by Casting Crowns - for 2 years now, and have yet to get it to where I want to include it. It is a beautiful, very meaningful and 'rich' song, and I have had a really tough time getting a sequence together which captures and conveys all that song means to us. For this particular song, the lights should be secondary to the song and the message, and that's been tough - I really like bright and a lot of 'movement'.

But I am hopeful I can get this done this year.

If you succeed, be sure to post the video for us. Great song. I've been doing the same for "This Christmas Day".
