Little Drummer Boy - 2009 - Sallaway Christmas Lights

Our christmas light display for 2009: "Little Drummer Boy" by Josh Groban.

The display is fully computer controlled and synchronized to music. We have over 100,000 lights, on 384 individually controllable channels. All the music synchronization is done by hand, and it takes about 10 hours per minute of music -- so this song took about 40 hours to do!

The music is played on speakers for viewers, but also broadcast over low-power FM (on 91.7 FM) so people can tune their car radios to it.

This year, we're raising money for the Royal Children's Hospital Foundation, who work wonders for sick children. If you'd like to make a donation, we've put a collection box out the front of our display for anyone that's enjoyed the show.

Thanks for watching. If you're in Brisbane and want to come see the show, you can find us on Childs Street, in Rochedale South - feel free to pop in and say Hi!
