POWERUP HOUSTON 1999

Texans love to blow stuff up; it's one of the reasons I love this town! Houston has been host to several astonishing laser and fireworks spectacles that engulfed downtown. This clip of the finale of the 1999 show can only hint at the glory of the event!

ROCK n ROCKETS

Disney's legendary, once-in-a-lifetime spectacle at the Contemporary resort. A second show was cancelled due to weather, so it only happened once, and I got to see it, ha ha! The grandest, most jaw dropping show ever. 40 solid minutes, all of it bigger than the finales of most shows. Here's the last few minutes - when everybody has broadband, maybe I can put the whole show up for download!

ILLUMINATIONS 1994

Epcot's massive laser and fireworks show has been through a few permutations. This short clip from the 25th anniversary celebration of WDW is notable for the "screamers" that punctuated the finale. Sadly, the real beauty of the show - spiderlike laser beams, incredibly saturated clouds of color, don't capture well on amatuer video...
