Even after 40 years of them being closed, the band is still running, *the owner just isn’t ready to let go of it yet, you could say he’s just a sentimental type of guy.*
Yeah hopefully he finds an employee soon maybe he could rejuvenate interest in the franchise. But I mean, all he has to do is keep his eyes on the monitor.
Waiting for the FNAF fandom to blow this video up lol Jokes aside, it's honestly pretty cool that Scott decided to use a song that was actually covered and performed by the characters at showbiz pizza
I was a technician at Showbiz/Chuck E Cheese back in the mid 90s to early 2000. So i've had the pleasure of re-skinning them when we swapped from Chuck E Cheese Mr Munch's Band to Showbiz character aka Rockafire Explosion. When I started working, we had Chuck E Cheese characters and the place was called Showbiz Pizza, which was the mix of the two places. Then one of the corporate guys, Raja Joshi I believe, bought three locations and turned them into Billy Bob's Pizza, which is when we overnight swapped the skins on the characters over a weekend, plus we had to clean the pneumatics. So, when my kids started playing FNAF, I was really happy to see that the insides were pretty accurate. Billy Bob's lasted about a year and a half. But it started my arcade tech journey/career and I still fix and collect arcade machines to this day. Quick back story, when I was kid late 79 to 81 I lived in California, and we had Showbiz, and the Rockafire Explosion was my first Pizza Animatronic experience, and not Chuck E Cheese. I actually didn't see that until I moved to Virginia in 82, and it's the same CEC I worked at, and the new employee tape gave the backstory of CEC and Showbiz. It also turns out, my absolute hate of pizza crust comes from when I was at that same spot in California as a kid and got a crust stuck in my throat, which hurt for like two days, so I had a sort of fear of pizza crust, and still to this day, I rarely eat them only if they're stuffed crust. So after watching that employee video I told the manager that i'm working for the company that gave me a phobia LOL!! Thank you for coming to my ADHD filled Ted Talk.
@@zupacup7809 when did it become a community? i rarely see fnaf fans besides from furry/anime cons and whenever someone brings it up. might just be my area, but isnt a community not afraid to come out?
honestly i would have loved to be a kid at the 80s lol i love this kind of stuff so much. Imagine these animatronics playing this exact same song at its prime, at birthday parties full of kids and families. Must have been so much fun.
It was fun. The pizza was actually good. They had beer for the adults. Games were great. It was so much fun. Once I got to be about 11 or 12 not as much, but at 8 or 9 I loved the music too.
I felt like it was when I was a kid, but I wasn't sure if it was a false memory. Then I saw the FNAF trailer and I was like, "Oh, tell me I wasn't wrong."
I love Rockafire Explosion. I hate that Chuck E Cheese is what people think of when they think animatronics when the Rockafire gang have way better designs and move so much more fluidly.
@@Ty_HillYou just described CEC lmao. Look at any video with fully functioning Showbiz animatronics and you'll see how advanced they are compared to the cyberamics
I need to go back!! I went in the summer of 2021 and met Rex and Braylon and they were just the sweetest. They took me backstage to see the inner-workings and let me on stage to see them perform up close. Literally one of the best things I’ve ever experienced, 100% worth the 9 hour drive!!
@@BallinProductionDogsi agree i grew up with chuck e. cheese early 200s my parents has this when they were kids nothing cool about these they’re horrifying.
Hear me out: FNAF is giving people a LOT of interest in animatronics. Chuck E Cheese thinks they’re scary now and they’re getting rid of their animatronics. This could be prime time for a comeback.
I absolutely loved going to Showbiz Pizza as a kid. We went every other month. Showbiz Bob and his gang were the bomb. You wouldn’t have Chucky Cheeses “munch’s make believe band or Freddy Fazbears band from FNAF, if it wasn’t for these guys. Love this.
@orangetheorange well obviously not this video, but scott definitely grew up around the time when they would be playing this song at an atucal location, so it might have been from his childhood
@@user-ejxomyq to me, theyre less creepy when you see them in action moving around and talking, its when theyre standing still is when the creepy sets in
Lol, feel bad for whoever works the night shift there ever since the movie came out. Or unless this video was from years ago then the place is closed now.
This gives me nostalgia for something I've never experienced.

I love these animatronics also

And the security guards must be looking for their lost family member

That is so amazing! Too bad the pizza crust incident left such deep scars in your brain :(
I was literally thinking about what it might look like inside when I saw your comment. Very interesting
I don't think anyone cares
Why do I feel like the FNAF movie might single handidly revive the rock afire?
And Chuck E. Cheese to actually take care of their animotronics.
Because fnaf isn't just a fandom of a game anymore, it's a community
@@zupacup7809 when did it become a community? i rarely see fnaf fans besides from furry/anime cons and whenever someone brings it up.

@@ax_lzthis is irl shut up about FNAF for once
@@C0astinG4merNah
I never knew that this was programmed for them at all.
Trivia night segment 3~
I was kinda hoping it was part of the software suite they would've handed out but I wasn't sure.
So glad it was.
I felt like it was when I was a kid, but I wasn't sure if it was a false memory. Then I saw the FNAF trailer and I was like, "Oh, tell me I wasn't wrong."
People still program songs for them, I think the original creator still does some times as well
@@FoxTheRad ok
This Place was huge in the 80's with the kids, the owner is just isn't ready to let it go yet.
Why do I feel the studio working on FNAF movie saw this and said they wanted to recreate this? This is so perfect!
I love Rockafire Explosion. I hate that Chuck E Cheese is what people think of when they think animatronics when the Rockafire gang have way better designs and move so much more fluidly.
All animatronics are really cool, I love Munch’s Make Believe Band and The Rockafire Explosion equally
People think of Chuck E. Cheese because they were the original and then sued showbiz :/
are we looking at the same things bc these looking like nightmare fuel. The move so robotically and constantly making creepy piston and metal noises
@@Ty_Hill ok but have you seen Chuck E. Cheese’s animatronics?

Yeah, I traveled about 6 hours to see it myself and I don’t regret it AT ALL.
As a kid I thought the Chuck E Cheese ones weren't cool but now I adore the charm of them and these guys as well.
They're both great, but personally the Rock afire Explosion is a lot better than CEC animatronic shows though.
This is the most cursed shit I’ve ever seen. Straight nightmare fuel. No charm
@@BallinProductionDogs I disagree. Rock afire Explosion is amazing.

Probably should check the back stage for a springlock suit

I think fnaf did it on purpose
I imagining Mitzi singing as Chica singing the song Talking in your sleep.
Someone should animate chica with this song version

Not gonna lie, this song just slaps when you put animatronics in the mix
Mitzi walked so Freddy could run.

After watching the fnaf movie this has a whole new meaning 💀
I am really intrested in animatronics, and sometime I would love to go and see the Rock-Afire Explosion sometime in my lifetime.
fnaf movie reference!!
Other way around actually. This show was programed for the RAE back in the 80's. Only recently did scott decide to use it in the fnaf movie.
@orangetheorange Yeah I know hahaha, I was joking. I'm pretty sure scott was influenced by this
@@MrComedygoldFilms high chance. Probably not this specific video though. He may have binged listened to every RAE show tbh. I do it daily.
@orangetheorange well obviously not this video, but scott definitely grew up around the time when they would be playing this song at an atucal location, so it might have been from his childhood
@@MrComedygoldFilmsthey probably chose this song actually for the plot of mikes dreams in the movie
30% of the comment section: man i remember going to showbiz as a kid
The rest: FNAF!!!!!
both is good :)

People Who knows:💀
They can't move 💀 so people doesn't have to know anything 💀
@@Uhh438 I am talking about the song not the animatronics and I know they bolted to the ground
@@SammyinVR It's just a song by Romantics
no one understands how badly i want showbiz to come back for good
CEC: Nooo we don’t want to be associated with FNaF!!
The last remaining Showbiz location: Hold my beer
It's not the last there are some locations too
Wow the predicted the fnaf movie
God damn my mind has been so corroded by fnaf I forgot how good animatronics can move and perform 😭
ik its less robotic than I expected
@@user-ejxomyq to me, theyre less creepy when you see them in action moving around and talking, its when theyre standing still is when the creepy sets in
Did... did the FNAF movie reference this? Or am I trippin?
they totally referenced this

Quit lying that’s the most cursed shit I’ve ever seen
Honestly the gorilla looks pretty chill lol I’d like to have a drink with him
Lol, feel bad for whoever works the night shift there ever since the movie came out. Or unless this video was from years ago then the place is closed now.
Nope it still open in Virginia it called Billy jobs wonderland
The FNAF movie in a 3 minute video:
Excuse me It's Billy Bob's Wonderland not like unrealistic FNaF animatronics
Just so everyone knows this is old footage, they have been restored since then
Nope they are still in the restraint for the public right now
This whole things needs to be revived with pizza places. Even licensing fnafs and their toys, candy etc would be hilarious
I just noticed the music is the same in fnaf movie
Really 😱😱
Love it
Every time I hear this epic song I will remember the animatronics from Five Nights at Freddy's 😁
Man, the things I'd do to go here!
Rock-A-Fire rules! 🤘
I LOVE THIS SONG
Man I loved showbiz pizza…as long as they didn’t try to get me to go up by the stage😂😂 I was terrified of that gorilla 😂
"I look likes the little guy wants to give the gorilla a BIG kiss!"

This is so good!

This is.. is the fnaf movie referencing this?
It's clear this is what fnaf is referencing
We gettin springlock'd with this one fellas!
This is like five nights at Freddy’s
Who would have guessed
Except way better.
I had no idea they covered this song.
not me fighting the urge to say “fnaf reference?”
Fnaf movie irl?
No And Bad Joke
This song was the song the animatronics in the fnaf movie played
Fun fact: It was singing directly to Mike

I hear the secrets that you keep
talking in your sleep
I'd love to see this play one day. I grew up around some Chuck E animatronics but I've grown to appreciate the artistry behind the Rock-afire

funny this was posted before the fnaf movie, and then the song appears when the animatronics sing it
¿Sabían que? Esta canción apareció en FNAF la película❤❤❤
Oh my fucking god
The prophecy has been fulfilled
whats scaring me isnt the faces but the fucking metallic sounds of the animatronics when they move
Reminds me of my dead brother Garrett
They predicted it
When your parents say that we have Fnaf at home
It’s wild seeing these animatronics still able to run after all these years. 👏
That's such a coincidence that Shalisa did a cover of the song.
IT'S THE ANIMATRONICS FROM GRAVITY FALLS!!
No gravity falls parodied them
@@DustBoyFN That's what I was saying.

The song is in the FNAF movie 🎬 and l love it
epic to see the song performed outside of the film with these animatronics !
I've got a signed photoprint of them :)
“I thought you said the animatronics were unplugged”
Estoy mirando este video por la película FiveNightsatFredys
bro, I just found out something if you take away the B then you change it to a W then you get rid of bobs, then it makes Willys Wonderland
Need to make a scary movie about this place
No
Five Nights At Freddy's (2023)
No
The fact that this video released before the fnaf movie dropped only proves that this attraction was research for the fnaf movie soundtrack.
This makes it even crazier that they made the fnaf animatronics perform this song in the movie
Is this why they used it in the five nights at Freddy’s movie? As a reference to rockafire?
I live 5 minutes from this place. Used to love going there as a kid but I've heard it's been really let go recently, oh the irony
This Place Was A Hit In The 80s *Before The Children Went Missing*
