Catonsville, Maryland Fourth of July 2021 Fireworks (7/3/21)

The complete July 4th 2021 fireworks show in Catonsville, Maryland, specifically at Catonsville High School. The actual fireworks start at 5:53. Grand Finale starts at 43:56.
Because the fireworks last year was canceled due to Covid-19, the fireworks this year was 48 minutes long--the longest and best fireworks show on the East Coast! I definitely was not disappointed! They started 15 minutes early due to storms rolling in, and it did start raining a little during the show, but it wasn't too bad.
Also, the fireworks show this year was held on Saturday, July 3rd, because the 4th fell on a Sunday. Apparently some places do the parades and fireworks a day early if July 4th is on a Sunday because they can't get road closure permits due to people trying to go to church (from what people say on facebook). I was able to attend Columbia, Maryland's fireworks show on the 4th, so I was able to see TWO fireworks shows! I will upload the Columbia fireworks this week.
Also of note, this is the first time I am filming in 60 frames per second! I'm using an android phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 8), and it will only allow filming in 60 fps for 10 minutes at a time. I had to stitch the clips together in post. That will explain why I randomly snap my fingers a few times in the video, so that I can sync up the video to audio of my separate (better) microphone (just in case anybody wondered). I did notice a few times where there was some frame dropping issues due to filming in 60 fps...I later found the solution was to turn off Video Stabilization in the camera settings, so next year's video will be better.

Thank You for Recording and posting the show! Our team of shooters never gets the opportunity to watch the show while we are shooting it. We truly appreciate you recording and posting these videos every year! The Team all thanks you! Richard

Aw, yay! I'm so happy to hear that. :D

I would very much like to thank you in person! Could you please stop by the fields on July 2nd or 3rd this year, and if those days are not possible for you, please come down to the field before 8:30pm on the 4th, and ask for Richard. Tell anyone who stops you that I am expecting you.

@@whythere Oh, jeez, I didn't see your comment until now. I didn't get any notification about any new comments, or if I did, I somehow missed it. Sorry about that! I hope you didn't think I was ignoring you. Maybe I can come down next year, if the offer's still open. I will be uploading this year's show very soon, probably in the next couple of days, so you can look forward to that in the meantime.

The offer is always open to you. We shoot shows all year long. They are not nearly as large as Catonsville. We will be doing the Frederick Keys later this month, and a show in Boonsboro on July 30th! Can’t wait to see this year’s catonsville show! Our team of volunteers worked 3days to build, load and shoot, and another day to clean it up.
