One thing I do love about where I live is that I can see the town fireworks displays (every 4th of July and New Years) from my porch, away from the annoyance of actual human contact. I can't hear any of it, of course, except the occassional crack-ck-ck of a particularly big one, so I put on something appropriate, like the music from Disney's Fantasmic!, and have my own private show.
This year, I put on Fantasmic! starting at the villain sequence, which is my favorite part and, at about the midpoint, is suitable for the length of our usual displays around here (13 minutes, give or take). And yes, right around the start of Maleficent's death throes, what LOOKED like the finale of the fireworks started.
Only then, they kept going. Through the finale of Fantasmic! Through the "let's play music while the CMs gently prod the guests into moving" music. Into the start of The Mainstreet Electrical Parade (which is on this playlist because it's the second track of the CD...and yes, my CD was old enough that it is, indeed, the Mainstreet Electrical Parade music that I have, and not the Disney Electrical Parade).
The true finale didn't start until the Pinnochio sequence in Mainstreet. Not that I'm complaining; one can't go wrong when one's sparkling lights are accompanied by electrasynthomagnetic musical sounds, after all. :D I'm just surprised.
And the true finale? Looked like they'd taken a match to all three of our fireworks stores. This totally made up for the lackluster fireworks that brought in 2010.
