Seems like the voting aspect really took off this year.
Some stats.

Obviously by anyone who spent more than 30 seconds watching the show, Golden - Demon Hunters was the most requested song for the season. By far.
It also created the most screaming kids I've ever had! LOL.

The most requested Christmas song was All I Want For Christmas by Mariah Carey. No surprise there as before last year it was the most requested song.
Defying Gravity (last years top request) came in 2nd this year.
Rounding out top 5 were Bluey Theme and 12 Day Of Christmas respectively.
There were 3 nights with over 100 votes cast. With Sat Dec 13 topping them with 147 votes.

Thought you would like to know.

Same message as every year!
Tonight is last night of the light show!
There is some sadness... a little happiness. (I'm tired of freezing out there.)
Thank you to all of you who donated to my fundraiser.
Some of you know how much it means to me.
Once again your generosity is immeasurable!

This year was a little rough (weather/ issue on FB)
I thank those of you who defended me.
I also appreciate the more than typical kind words I received from a lot of you over the issue.
As I told virtually all of you I don't need accolades or recognition (it's not why I do it, despite what some of the FB psychiatrists say)
I still am humbled and grateful for your support.

I cannot end this post without thanking all the people who make the show happen.
As always my wonderful and very tolerant neighbors. I am grateful and lucky to have their full support in this.
My wife and children who are the first to yell at me in October to "get out there" and get the show going.
The Doddato family again for all their help on Santa night.
And especially John Doddato for all his behind the scene's help with the setup and keeping me company (freezing also) out there virtually every night.

Hope you all enjoyed the show.

A Happy and Healthy New Years to all of you and your families!

Now it is time for this bear to go back into hibernation.

See you next October.

Thank you all,
Mario

Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas.

Gonna try something new this year.
Made a new playlist that won't have any Christmas songs.

I'm calling it "Thank God It's Almost Over!!"
Some of you may call it "Can't wait for the kids to go back to school!"
Or whatever you like.

It will be a mix of some songs from the Halloween and Christmas playlist that are more kid/dance/rock/fun orientated!
And some new songs we never sequenced before.

You will be able to vote for Christmas songs along with the new songs from my Remote Falcon website if you want to hear them.
But the random playlist will not have any Christmas songs in it.

Let me know what you think of the new playlist.

Santa night was a tremendous success last night.
Hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did!
Have to thank the people who made it all work.
Pete Mann for doing a spectacular job!! (As always!!!)
Terry Ballard for taking the pictures of all the smiling faces!
And the not smiling (mine). Lol.
John, Emilia, Helen and Angelina Doddato for all their help with setting up and serving everyone!!
My kids Mario and Vanessa for all their help!
And especially my wife Linda who puts in more work than all of us to make sure there is plenty of everything needed!!

And a special Thank You to all who donated to the fundraiser I set up. Once again your generosity is beyond words!!

Pics should be posted in a few days.

Still time to get your letters to Santa in if you didn't already.
(please remember a return address on the letter)

Show runs through New Years Eve.

Nights like last night remind me why I do it!
And I thank you all for that and all the support you all give!!

Unfortunately we won't be running the show tonight, as the wind gusts are too high for my comfort. I don't foresee any issues with running tomorrow and Santa's visit from 6-9 pm. See you tomorrow!

I can't believe I have to write this but apparently I do.
PLEASE DO NOT BACK INTO MY NEIGHBORS DRIVEWAY TO WATCH MY LIGHT SHOW.
I a very fortunate to have great understanding neighbors who are VERY understanding when people are parked in front of their houses sometimes for over an hour.
But according to this guy and his girlfriend I'M THE A-HOLE for yelling at him to not park there. So maybe they're right but don't park in their driveways. Or in front of them either.
I WILL NOT jeopardize my relationship with my neighbors for this show!!
We live here all year you guys do not.

Now most of you who talk to me know that I LOVE doing the show or I wouldn't so I don't mean to lump all of you together with this jerk.
And 99.9% of you are WONDERFUL and I love to see the smiles on you and your children's faces.
But guys like this make me wonder sometimes.

Rant Over...... For now.

Reminder: Send your letters to Santa!!
Santa is SO EXCITED to respond to your letters ! (😔JK)
Please be sure to include a return address.
Again try not to use marker as the mailbox is not weatherproof.
Santa's elves do their best to stay on top of these.

(And yes I was too lazy to take another picture and used the same one from last year.)
