He doesn't play the music out loud, otherwise his neighbours might throw stones. Instead, he <strong>transmits the music on an FM radio band.</strong> The illuminated sign on the right advises passing motorists to tune their car radios to a particular frequency. He's not doing a display this year because, last year, there was a serious traffic accident and the suburban streets were so choked that the ambulance couldn't get through.

Reminds me: I'd better post the pictures of Len Doof's house some time (seriously, that is his name!) He ends up having the street he lives in closed off every year (for about 6 weeks), ice-cream vans turn up, and people drive across Adelaide to see his light show. He's also barking mad :) That guy is a little over the top.
