Darn good light show Chic Silber! And a very nice YouTube segment on the special-effects you did for "Wicked!" It was good you kept mentioning your circus work in the same breath with theater work. By the way, many years ago on New Year's Eve I saw Irvin Feld's name with some sort of New Year's congratulations scroll across the message board that enwraps one of the buildings on Times Square.

Thanks Dick but the TSNYE event

was not my doing but the scroll

you mention that wraps around the

Times Tower began service in 1928

with 14,800 incandescent lamps

It is known as "The Zipper" & is

now replaced with LED technology

The 1st NYE celebration that had

fireworks from the building roof

was on December 31st of 1903 to

ring in 1904 when the area was

renamed "Times Square" from the

original "Longacre Square"
