Neon Display on "The Voice"

Pretty impressive display last night. Looks to be all real. Must of been quite a task to get it all setup, wired, no breakage or buzzing in just a matter of minutes. Probably from some prop company that services TV, Movies, Etc.?? Anybody know?

Yes that was bad ass!

I did a LOT of theater work in my youth, in fact my degree is in lighting and scenery design. A display like that would be all pre-set on panels so the set up would be minimal. But wow what a display. Between shows like Pickers and the music competitions neon is being highlighted a lot. Let's hope it results in a resurgence.

Folks like kenny Greenburg do shows like that - just caught the show having just got back from the beautiful Tennessee area and caught the recording of it. Nice!!

I was hoping someone on here might have been involved with this. I thought it would be interesting to know if most of these were made new or restored? If they used conventional or electronic transformers? If they had any special filters to reduce line noise in all of the amplifiers & sound equipment it was surrounded with. And how many people it took to move it and the time it took?

Just curious.....

My good friend Kenny looked at some pics and believes it to be flexible LED. Especially for that type of use. If true, bummer!

If you look at it, the pics, some is and some is not. The real Neon has light behind it (360 deg) or at 180 deg. "Cocktail Lounge" looks to be LED Flex

Wish there was a really good picture to blow up and look at the connections and double backs cause then we's gnaw for sure.

There is a company in California that does neon primarily for events, TV and movies. Everything is rented. The company is Nights of Neon, They used to call and order crazy varieties of glass and need them like yesterday. Awesome people there.

Great to hear. Bet the rental isn't cheap!
