There's a Making Of video too, in which the turtles remain in character for the entire video, which provides strong evidence that these were the real Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and not some poseurs in costumes.
I remember my dad taking to this concert it was my first concert and still to this day i remember every song word for word and dance it was awesome and a great memory turtles fan 4 life ❤
Just curious, the scene where the turtles talk with the news anchor, did they play that on like a screen or something? Or was that just something added to the VHS
I got to see this live!!!!! I didn't know there was a video! I had the cassette tape! Thank you for this! It's crazy seeing it like 35 years later. 😂❤ i feel like it shaped my life jist a bit. 😅
I had only heard the rumors until fate finally bestowed me this tape last week. I mean, if there is anything better in the history of Theater than Splinter singing about skipping rocks in a pond, I defy anyone to show it to me. I'm looking at you, Lin Manuel Miranda and William Shakespeare.
@@DrRIPVHS I still have my cassette tape I got from Pizza Hut back in the day but it didn't include Shredders song. I saw the show with my mother as a kid and always wanted to hear it again. "The gift of song is the gift I curse!! I hate music, I said I think it's the worst!!" I'm sorry sir but this is the first time Ive heard this in over 30 years and it's absolutely the most beautiful thing Ive ever heard. I didn't even know a VHS existed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you...
You gotta understand how astronomical this was back then, also can we appreciate the wholesomeness of Master Splinter spittin actual words to live by, great stuff :)
I found my old cassette tape of this in my garage today and had to look it up to see if I could finally watch the actual show. Always wanted to see it rather than just listen. I know all the words! God bless TH-cam
@@battra92 I had to review the 3rd movie for a podcast I'm on. I'm just old enough the the whole Turtles fad passed by me by the first go-around. Oof was that movie a doozy.
@@DrRIPVHS I was 100% the target audience for TMNT. I liked the first movie, though I was just a hair too young for some of it (my parents wouldn't let me watch it alone) so I could totally understand why Part 2 went the way it did. The third movie was just wrong. I remember my dad asking if I wanted it on video and I said no thanks. I think they could tell the fad was over.
Tbh the 3rd movie was absolutely trash. 😅 I remember seeing it in the theater and just crying because it was so terrible and the turtles didnt look the same @@battra92
I’m not ashamed of being 7 and loving this I am ashamed I still loved it at 10 😂 Edit: I am ashamed that I am 39 & I just started singing “follow your heart” with Michelangelo tonight.
My mom and aunt took my cousin and I to see this live in OKC. I'll never forget it. Probably one of my core memories. I remember Michaelangelo missing the flying pizza and just shrugging it off. I don't remember THIS, but apparently according to my mom and aunt, after Shredder had been instigating and shot the confetti gun, when it was all quiet, i decided it was a great time to announce that i was gonna kick him in the nuts. In their recount, the cast had to take a second and struggled not to laugh. My mom ofc was absolutely mortified 😅
i didnt know about this i was searching for live TMNT ACTS like promo tv and bang you gave me an hour of live satisfaction , so it was this real ..original tracks sound-score specially made for a tour band ... unbelievable for the greatest cartoon show eva
I used to watch this VHS when my mom and dad used to go to town. I had to get babysit by my godfather and teenage Turtles live on VHS is my favorite. Thank you for saving it and you’re the best.
This show has the feeling of a school assembly where a group of performers would come in to sing and dance, or do gymnastics, and then lecture the kids about drugs.
I asked Cam Clarke (Leonardo) during a live Instagram video with someone why Rob Paulsen, Townsend Coleman, and Barry Gordon didn't reprise their roles as the voices of Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello, respectively, from the cartoon. He said that one of the producers of the show was a friend of his and when he asked Cam if he would do it, he said yes. However, when he said he would he didn't realize that the other three wouldn't be asked to do it too. I'm guessing that Peter Reneday (Splinter) was friends with one of the producers too and he got to do this show as well.
I'd consider it the greatest achievement of my life to be sued by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Funnily enough, I have a "Making of TMNT 2: Secret of the Ooze" tape that I can't post because of active copyright, so I guess they do care to a certain extent. :D
James D. Rolfe The Nerd himself he’s was the kid he’s love Coming Out of the Their Shells Tour He’s never seen the live tour but He’s had the Cassette Tape and He’s listened to it all the time.
I barley remember this. My dad took me we went when I was 3 or 4 years old.. I definitely remember them throwing the pizzas in the end and the pizza power song. Wow a memory I can barley remember but I'm glad I could see it again now as an adult ❤
God this brings back memories! I still remember the words, OMG! Gotta hand it to them in those outfits though. Some great work there and they are moving well in them lol.
Teenage Mutant "Hero" Turtles was the show my mother completely banned me from seeing as a kid. I think the 'Turtles are violence glorifying and absurd in concept' brigade got to her. But she was fine with me watching Bucky O'Hare instead, which was *far* dumber (and ran an even greater risk of turning me into a Furry in later life!)
Bucky O'Hare was so effortlessly cool tho. I mean.. a space rabbit gunslinger with a cape?! A four armed duck with an eyepatch and a trucker hat?! THAT FREAKIN THEME SONG Don't get me wrong, TMNT was super dope, but Bucky deserved better imo
That's the whole reason why this concert existed. As a ten year old back then, I don't remember who said it was violent, so they traded in their weapons for instruments and then they still end up fighting Shredder on stage, lol.
😭😭😭 anything but this, man - I remember watching this on VHS back in ‘02 at 6 years old. At 27 now, I can’t believe how much they thought they devoured this whole set💀💀💀💀
Even though i knew from the start that this was bullcrap, i am kind of triggered that the actors don't act right even though this is all play back they could at least try to look like it's not, i mean they ain't got this fake instruments for nothing Raph should stay behind the drums for every song that doesn't contain a drum Computer (i think this would be very song except for sing about it where you can learly hear that this is a computer) or when Leo and Mike putting their hands in the air right in the intro of pizza power where ya can hear that guitar and bass still are playing, we better not talk about the lip sync fails, but i would like it better when they would have casted people who have just 3 fingers per hand (by accident or something i don't care) and them teach them to play the instruments or maybe some 3 fingered guys who still can play instruments or something but this playback stuff doesn't fell right at all, even tought the songs are fire and i really like them
@@thatoneguy8415 no, i am not i have seen motley crue live this year, and even though it's all playback at least they tried to look like they play there instruments, but this... they are dancing without even touching there instruments, while you hear guitar, bass, and drums
I saw this at my hometown and was disappointed that they didn't rise up out of the stage at the beginning. The shredder they used was better than this one.
@@DrRIPVHS man I just woke up seen a vanilla ice Interview talked about ninja rap I spent last 3 hours watching TMNT stuff ended up here now watching clips of the final fight with shredder of movie from 2014 downloaded shredders revenge for PS5 and wondering why we don't have a new movie and game THE WORMHOLE OF TH-cam IS WILD

Like teenage mutant Ninja turtles so cool 😎

I also saw this live in Eureka MO in Six Flags as a kid. Wild
My childhood. EVERY SATURDAY HOME FROM SCHOOL. I WAS OBSESSED WITH THIS.
Damn kids are dumb. Lol I never saw this as a kid, but I'm sure I would have loved it.
I.... I just..... I'm like........ I didnt know anything could be this beautiful...

I was 10 years old. My mom took me. Loved it and those songs where bangers.
This is my earliest memory of becoming aware of the concept of Jumping the Shark.
And "cynical cash grab."

Bringing back memories on this one.
I was a little little baby child when my grandfather had this on VHS and I love pizza power song, favorite song tmnt
@@markbarton3326 A flying saucer food delight! 🎶 😄
So iconic 😢 I watched this every single day as a kid
Me too...all the time
This should not be slapping this hard in 2024. Way before its time and nothing like this will ever exist again. TMNT POWER
Right 2024 and people still listening to it I actually have the song on my music app on my I phone lol 😂😂
I’m not ashamed of being 7 and loving this I am ashamed I still loved it at 10 😂
Edit: I am ashamed that I am 39 & I just started singing “follow your heart” with Michelangelo tonight.
38 here
40… still know word for word
Wow I never knew that TMNT did a musical, my favorite kind of live stage show 😄👏🏻🎶🧡❤💙💜🐢🍕

This blew my mind when I was a kid! And Pizza Power is a banger!
I remember having this vhs as a kid!
I love you for this. We used to have this. So many child memories.
Is this in the Library of Congress movie vault yet? Humanity needs to see this in 1,000 years
How i did i not know this existed, i love this
Man...now that I think about it, it's no surprise I got beat up and made fun of as much as I did as a kid. How did I ever think this was cool? 😂
Should i be proud or embarrassed that this lives rent free in my head after all these years

April's Ballad is my favourite!
April was stacked in this
Her voice is incredible
never thought I would see this again. way to go
I was at six flags when they performed there. I was 4 or 5 years old. Have pics being there.
I wish I had photos, I saw them at Six Flags Astro World in Houston.
58:14 Shredder turned out to be right about The New Kids on the Block breaking up as they disbanded only a few years after this tour in 1993 LOL
Yeah but NKOTB is currently touring, while Shredder's music career has fizzled. Now who's laughing??
@@DrRIPVHS oh damn didn't realize they'd reunited neat.

The producers can probably still enforce that warning at the very beginning if they even cared enough. 🤣

Facts!
Shredder the insult comic is so fucking hilarious
God this brings back memories! I still remember the words, OMG! Gotta hand it to them in those outfits though. Some great work there and they are moving well in them lol.
Ninja 🥷 🐢 Turtles ™️ 🪨 Rocks 🎸!
The only thing good to come from this abomination was "Pizza Power" and how that was essentially the theme song for "Turtles in Time". Such a banger!
I literally was thinking the same thing! That’s the best song in this and really is so memorable! 😂❤
Cowabunga!
NIGHTMARE FUEL ALERT
Thank you 100 times for posting this! I remember seeing this in Radio City Music Hall. 🥰
Edit: how the hell did you find this VHS?
Oh wow - I think you're the first commenter who actually saw this in person! I found this VHS at a Goodwill outlet. I was very excited lol
I love it the 80s outfits l’m feeling a Fnaf security breach vibes right now
The glamrock ninjas turtles THAY LOOK FABIOLUS!!!!
The Turtles really were everywhere back than.
"you got to FIGHT to be free!!!!! you got to FIGHT for what is right!!!!! you got to FIGHT to be free!!!!!! but we need your help tonight!!!!"
"What kind of music do you listen to?" Uh, well
I remember buying this at blockbuster...to fill the void while i waited for tmnt 3 to come out on vhs....
All these years i was singing the melody to pizza power and was trying to remember where it was from 😂😂
Like so cool 😎
Saw this in Milwaukee
Teenage Mutant "Hero" Turtles was the show my mother completely banned me from seeing as a kid. I think the 'Turtles are violence glorifying and absurd in concept' brigade got to her.

😭😭😭 anything but this, man - I remember watching this on VHS back in ‘02 at 6 years old. At 27 now, I can’t believe how much they thought they devoured this whole set💀💀💀💀
I remember having this on vhs way back. Nostalgic like a mf
I thought this show was pretty interesting. Needed some work but other than the flaws the concert about the world of music was turtle-tastic!
Makes me miss pizza hut even though islets down the street
Makes you wonder what Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird would think. 😅
I got the vhs recently from eBay.
I had this VHS
This musical now predicted Fortnite Festival
They must been so hot in those costumes with the stage lights!

i had the.cassette tape and have all the songs memorized
Does anyone remember the weird part with the earth talking and showing her get worse and worse?
I wonder if the audio is all prerecorded and they just mime to it
As near as I can tell they sang at least some of it live, it sounds different than the cassette.
Most likely there's a band back stage and everything on stage is mimed.
Judging off that first high note, if it is pre-recorded, someone should have been fired.
Even at 6 yrs old....I new something was off with THESE turtles.😒

They are missing their shells lol!!!!
According to the title, they're actually coming out of them :D
