Oh my God.. after the first few seconds of hearing Billy Bob's voice, I was taken back to my childhood and the smell of the pizza and the noise of the video games and other children.. WOW. what a great flashback... Thank you for that!
This is such a touching tribute to Davy Jones. I made my own tribute to Davy from actual concert footage that I filmed myself during the 45th Anniversary Tour of The Monkees.
Hey Aaron, I must say this is an absolutely awesome video. I'm so glad you were able to put it together in your free time. Mitzi's singing in this tribute is indeed real wonderful. I hope that most of the work and help that I have done on and through a site on the internet a while back will help to bring back Showbiz Pizza Place and the Rock-afire Explosion real soon. On the other hand I know I will be missing Davy Jones myself for a long time to come. Thanks: Jason Winter from St. Louis MO.
These are so brilliantly maintained and programmed. They're exceptionally lifelike, especially considering how few actuators they use. And such a lovely tribute! :)
I loved it love it love it. I hope they start to make some more new videos case I would love to see more. They are so cute and I can not get enough of them. I am always wanting more. So I hope you have more coming. Thank you for showing me such awesome videos. I have subscribed to anyone who has anything to do with The Rock afire Explosion. I thought they rocked back then and they still rock now. SO thank you for showing me them and bringing back a lot of memories. I just wish as a kid I could have seen them instead of seeing them on TV commercials. But some day I will pay for the tour and I will see them before I die. Have you gone to see them????? I hope you have.
very nice!!! it is cool there are still a few places in the world that still have the original rock a fire explosion, nothing will replace them, chuck e cheese's are horrible the rock a fire explosion had great shows with many music artists and groups recognized and it was fun eating pizza and watching the shows this is a great tribute to davy jones and the monkees
A tribute that was well-done when it was originally made, and is still a phenomenal work of art to this day. Amazing work you've always done through the years, Aaron. Keep it up! ^_^
@hyrdrolisk1792 He still has one more band left, but he's selling it at the price he used to sell the to showbiz for because it's his last one. It's $120,000.
I know. The original RAE Monkees Theme was done in the 80s, but the tribute to Davy was done in 2012, since this video was uploaded the day after Davy died in February.
Thank you Aaron for this Great back in time from the White Album showtape... When did you make this Show tape? Was it 84 or 85? Hey I was watching the Video how come the Sun & Moon did not pop up? there Spot was on....
Aaron! How did you do all this in such a short time?? I mean, all the singing and programming and video? You must have had no sleep for DAYS to get this ready! You're simply AMAZING!!!!!
The only thing that was recorded and programed recently was Billy Bob doing his speech at the beginning. The rest of the video is a Monkees Tribute show done for Showbiz Pizza Place back in the mid 80's. I believe it was on the Beatles White Album Show tape along with the Tribute to Frank Sinatra with Rolf and Earl which is probably one of the funniest Rolf skits I've seen. Anyway- I'm sure that it came from there. There is a show that mentions this one on the tape entitled " Don't Hang Up"
I'm pretty sure all these songs were programmed for showbiz. The only part that was specially programmed for this video was the intro. BTW Shalisa has such an amazing voice!!!
Not Aaron, Davy Jones! And this show was not made that a few days before filming, it was programmed on another showtape a few years ago! He didn't make it in 2012 more like 1990's
@fanprograms Hey, since I can't message you direct, I'll have to ask here. This is a long shot, but, is there any way that one of these whole bands can still be purchased? I'm serious, this isn't a joke, and it is a long story why I'm asking this. It would be better if I could message you direct.
if you look it up there is a video posted on youtube labeled shakira hips dont lie sung by the rock-afire explosion... could it be lipsyncing from another video from the 80s?
Davy Jones is smiling up in heaven right now, good work!
Oh my God.. after the first few seconds of hearing Billy Bob's voice, I was taken back to my childhood and the smell of the pizza and the noise of the video games and other children.. WOW. what a great flashback... Thank you for that!
This is such a touching tribute to Davy Jones. I made my own tribute to Davy from actual concert footage that I filmed myself during the 45th Anniversary Tour of The Monkees.
I love the Monkees.
Two of my childhood favorites, Rock-afire Explosion and The Monkees. Bless you heart for this video!!!!!
I swear billy bob sounds just like him
Great job! I'd like this 10 times if I could.

I love the originals, my favorite show is the abbey road medley ;)

So Awesome. Thanks Aaron! Two childhood memories together because the Monkees show was being syndicated in daytime TV around the mid Eighties.

@hyrdrolisk1792 He still has one more band left, but he's selling it at the price he used to sell the to showbiz for because it's his last one. It's $120,000.
That sir is so grreat! Great job on filming too!
My grandpa died one year and one day after Davy Jones died.
R.I.P. To your grandpa
"nacho stepping stone"
lol
That is, Davy might be physically gone, but he lives through his music.
Did Fatz just get out of the shower and run on stage? lol
Nice tribute!
I know. The original RAE Monkees Theme was done in the 80s, but the tribute to Davy was done in 2012, since this video was uploaded the day after Davy died in February.
wow, that was fast!
Thank you Aaron for this Great back in time from the White Album showtape... When did you make this Show tape? Was it 84 or 85?
Hey I was watching the Video how come the Sun & Moon did not pop up? there Spot was on....
I've heard the original introduction to this piece featuring Rolfe and Earl on Radio Showbiz, and definitely like Billy Bob's introduction far better.
Nice programming Aaron!
🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
Aaron!
How did you do all this in such a short time?? I mean, all the singing and programming and video? You must have had no sleep for DAYS to get this ready! You're simply AMAZING!!!!!
Actually, he only programmed the intro, the Monkees Medley is from a show from when Showbiz was open
The only thing that was recorded and programed recently was Billy Bob doing his speech at the beginning. The rest of the video is a Monkees Tribute show done for Showbiz Pizza Place back in the mid 80's. I believe it was on the Beatles White Album Show tape along with the Tribute to Frank Sinatra with Rolf and Earl which is probably one of the funniest Rolf skits I've seen. Anyway- I'm sure that it came from there. There is a show that mentions this one on the tape entitled " Don't Hang Up"
This is uploaded the day after he died!
this show was made in 1983 from one of his Show tapes...
Well all that was new is the intro. The Monkees Tribute is actually from the Beatles White Album showtape in September 1983 for Showbiz Pizza Place.
I'm pretty sure all these songs were programmed for showbiz. The only part that was specially programmed for this video was the intro. BTW Shalisa has such an amazing voice!!!
Not Aaron, Davy Jones! And this show was not made that a few days before filming, it was programmed on another showtape a few years ago! He didn't make it in 2012 more like 1990's
Looney bird looks so sad at the beginning...
does Chris Thrash still have is set?
Calvin5040 no
He's not dead.
@fanprograms Hey, since I can't message you direct, I'll have to ask here. This is a long shot, but, is there any way that one of these whole bands can still be purchased? I'm serious, this isn't a joke, and it is a long story why I'm asking this. It would be better if I could message you direct.
I agree, the "Monkees Melody" is AWESOME, but this is an old skit from the 80's. The only new part of this is the intro. :)
if you look it up there is a video posted on youtube labeled shakira hips dont lie sung by the rock-afire explosion... could it be lipsyncing from another video from the 80s?
All he had to do was the intro the melody was from one of the shows he did for Showbiz Pizza Place in the 80's.
misty can sing good
Shadilay!!
No. Hips Don't Lie was released in 2006... Besides, that song isn't even in this video. What are you talking about?
Beach bear should have sang stepping stone, in my opinion.
He sang Last train to Clarksville greatly.
I can see that but it's a rock n roll song and Rolf had that kind of voice
k
ShowbizPizzaAndCec
my mom works with the monkees
