Let There Be Lights
If you haven't done so already, please, please, please, please read the guidelines in the
Patron Conduct tab now. Learn it. Know it. Live it.
All lights in the West Pershing Lights light shows are energy efficient LED lights and pixels. Absolutely no incandescent lighting is used! The light shows are fully automated with the help of Home Assistant home automation software and the Light-o-rama light show software. In total, there are 8422 lights available (5940 string and prop LEDs and 2472 pixel LEDs for 1872 pixels). The Halloween light show currently uses a total of 8022 LED lights and the Christmas and Valentine light shows currently use 7512 LED lights.
I would like to add more songs to the light shows. If you have any suggestions for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, St. Valentine's Day, or St. Patrick's Day songs,
email me some links to songs on Amazon or YouTube. My main requirement for song choices is that they are suitable for all ages. Songs that contain profanity or other strong adult content will not be considered unless a clean radio-version that is suitable for all ages is available.
To my West Pershing Lights neighbors: As the display gets bigger, it is also getting brighter. If my lights are flashing into your windows and you find it to be an annoyance, or if you have any other issues with the display or playlist, please
email me so we can work together on a solution.
Valentine Lights
The 2026 Valentine display and musical light show has come to an end. If you missed out on the 2026 Valentine musical light show, here is a link to the Google Photos album which includes video of the 2025 Valentine musical light show:

Halloween Lights
The 2026 Halloween light show has concluded. I don't know how you all do it, but the costumes keep getting better every year. Great job to all trick-or-treaters! I also like and appreciate all of your comments regarding the light show and my Ghostbuster costume, it makes all the time that goes into putting it up and maintaining it each year worth it. And I thought all of you comedians wishing me a Happy Valentine or Merry Christmas on Halloween was an awesome and funny trick!

Christmas Lights
The 2026 Christmas display and musical light show is setup and almost ready. It just needs a few light sequencing edits to add the new pixel tree that is new in the front yard for this year. If you missed out on last year's 2025 Christmas musical light show, here is a link to the Google Photos album which includes video of the musical light show:

For all West Pershing Lights light shows, the music may be heard from the sidewalk or driveway if you are walking by, and you can also hear the music by tuning to 106.5 FM on your radio. The light show will start on-the-hour. The
Start Time column in the playlists will be the approximate time after the top-of-the-hour (and half-hour for the Valentine light show) a song is expected to start playing.
