I love the custom accessories this stage had, even if it's not much. For some reason I especially love the folded up bandanna that was tied around Beach Bear's neck. XD
I like it how the old camcorders physically couldn’t focus on anything but at the same time it’s forcusig on everything. The lighting and everyone about it gives off the true 80s era. The funniest thing is the one little kid you can hear singing to the music.
Seth horst I'm with you it looks so cool also it's so hard to see choo choo the baby bear on dook's drumset and a frog under beach bear's surfboard because of those audience blocking the way
It’s nice to see that for the most part this RAE was in pretty good condition- only things I noticed were that Beach Bear & Mitzi might have had a little too much air pressure and Billy Bob’s hand didn’t move much. Super cool footage!
It was common for there to at least be a slight flaw. That's why they ran the Rolf & Earl shows days before concept unification, it was a way to make sure all of them were in tip top shape, especially Rolfe.
I was never able to see these cool animatronics preform makes me sad kids like me where never able to see such cool things in back in the 90’s and 80’s.
@@LKDAnimatronics so that means the the videos of Knoxville Tennessee is one of the the two and the photos that I have is two of two Knoxville Tennessee locations I know this because of the clouds the clouds give away what location it is
I know people hate out of context FNaF comments (as do I) but I really just wanna point out that people say that animatronics wouldn’t be able to move like Freddy’s gang does, but this is 86 and the first game was in 93, so it could totally happen. Also, this is great footage. I wonder why Rolfe doesn’t sing as much as the others. Maybe it’s just this video, but from what I’ve seen he just doesn’t sing too much.
Rolfe wasn't really considered one of the main characters, in fact there were originally plans to switch him out with new guest star characters after a certain amount of time. Of course since Uncle Klunk didn't do well, Showbiz Pizza Place stuck with Rolfe for the rest of it's time being in operation.
The mech movements on the mouths seems too violent and/or fast, maybe the psi was up too high, they could already be worn out if the psi was set too high. But meh that's me being nerdy.
Wether you liked the rock afire or not you have to admit these were really impressive for the time and even now hell I’d say it’s still better then anything Chuck E. Cheese has done even that one single chuck e
@@Wayfinder_Triko Darien had a different Billy Bob backdrop, and the show displayed in the 1985 video is of the original Darien show. Later in 1985, they replaced their show with the one from Benton Harbor, MI.
@@Wayfinder_Triko The original Knoxville location opened in August of 1982 as a ShowBiz Pizza Place. It was located at 7522 Kingston Pike. It closed in 1997 and reopened in March of 1998 at 8225 Kingston Pike with a 1-Stage.
Theme from the monkees, Daydream Believer, Steppin Stone, Last Train to Clarksville, I'm a Believer, a Little Bit Me a Little Bit You, Pleasant Valley Sunday, and then the monkees theme again.
Knoxville Tennessee (the Kingston Pike location) there was another smaller location but there was an incident of some sort making it close down. I believe it's a texas roadhouse now. It was around a mall

he was never really intended to be much of a permanent character in the RAE, there was originally supposed to be a rotation between him, uncle klunk, the statue of liberty, santa, and other ideas. but showbiz didnt really last that long to see those ideas fully visualize sadly.

Awww, the kids know the words to the songs! It's especially cute to hear the kids sing along to I'm a Believer fifteen years before Shrek came out.
It's interesting to see people's footage of ShowBiz Pizza Place, and the Rock Afire Explosion. Gosh, how I miss those days now.
yeah cause there's actually a working stage

This is so cool seeing the Rock-afire in an actual restaurant.
I love how the kids knew the words to these songs back then!
Showbiz Pizza Central knew
Joao’s World fixed it.
same !!
Kid's know the words to songs these days aswell....
hOW DARE THEY SKIP MITZI'S PART
so they could show me
Hi beach bear
See those kids were never scared even the baby wasn’t.
Yeah ppl are just dramatic I was never scared of cec bots as a kid either
@@tophatcat9996 these are not cec bots its fine common mistake 😁
Fnaf bro
@@seanrobison8558 I was kinda joking but my fnaf loving friend is terrified of chuck e cheese so maybe
I kinda wish more Earl's had that groovy Showbiz Pizza hat.

ther air pressures not too high, there flow controls are loose because they have really low stress cylinders in them
i still grieve the loss of mitzi's part
The kid in the background was so wholesome :')
1:59 this is so cute just the kid in the background is just going I’m….. not… your stepping stone 🥹
All these 80s videos and camcorder tapes seemed like a great time to be born in
Fun fact this was filmed at the knoxville tennessee location
Yep
@IronPlant where did u find the footage?
wish i could’ve been there :( it makes me cry that’ll never get to see them
a guy bought this exact full set after it was abandoned somewhere for 3 decades, he's now restoring them on his TH-cam channel
You can see them!!! Billy bobs wonderland has a working show and its public so does DreamFactory!!!!!theres ever retrofitted ones in the UK
Beach Bear's mouth seems to be a bit fast...

@@sethhorst6158 gotcha! Good to know! :)
Moral of the story: *reject humanity, return to monke*
How I miss these days.. wish I was there
One of the best song covers ever
I was never able to see these cool animatronics preform makes me sad kids like me where never able to see such cool things in back in the 90’s and 80’s.
i love earl's hat
looking at old rare vids are very interesting, thank you for uploading this!
Billy bobs cover is emotional to me
OMG KNOXVILLE SHOWBIZ! YES!
Which location was this? I have a feeling I know, but i'm not 100% sure..
He thinks is one of the 2 Knoxville, Tennessee Locations.
@@eascec8374 Its not its the Darien IL location which is now a chuck e cheese
@@Wayfinder_Triko It is the original Knoxville ShowBiz.
@@LKDAnimatronics so that means the the videos of Knoxville Tennessee is one of the the two and the photos that I have is two of two Knoxville Tennessee locations I know this because of the clouds the clouds give away what location it is
@@LKDAnimatronics source: trust me bro
That is my favorite show tape
I wish it like this. Also 1981-1983 looney bird masks. Not only that non showbiz’s had this like: Pistol Pete’s And BBWL.

sue!

Yeah for some reason most showbiz pizzas, the flow control was not in beach bears mouth cylinder for some reason
What location was this? It looked amazing, I really wish I was alive in the 80s
This was the Knoxville, TN Kingston Pike location. It never got concept unification, it was closed instead.
@@maxefilmsyup then it was brought back as a chuck e cheeses and had the newest 1 stage
It’s funny to see how all the animatronics especially Mitzi moved a lot faster/better than they do now 0:01
billy bobs hand isn't adjusted right
It looks fine to me
Tiger it’s to slow and needs more air
Rolfes still got his old mask
Wether you liked the rock afire or not you have to admit these were really impressive for the time and even now hell I’d say it’s still better then anything Chuck E. Cheese has done even that one single chuck e
6:16 LOONEY BIRD YIPPEEEEEEE
HELLO I'm using the Decatur malls tablet
The location is Darien IL location i compared it to another showtape and they look the same
I believe this is actually Knoxville, TN.
@@LKDAnimatronics the looney bird mask looks the same from a vid in 1985 daren iL location and has a bad condition mitzi with a stuck eye. But idk
@@Wayfinder_Triko Darien had a different Billy Bob backdrop, and the show displayed in the 1985 video is of the original Darien show. Later in 1985, they replaced their show with the one from Benton Harbor, MI.
@@LKDAnimatronics i never saw Knoxville with a 3 stage though but ok ill go along with it

Early Rolfe, sun, and Looney bird alert
1:38 :c
Looks like they took really good care of the animatronics. I’m other than well.... billy bobs wonderland
Knoxvilles always cared about their animtronics. So much that they've kicked people out for getting on the stage before
Their mouths move so fast.
Is that the early variant of rolfes mask?!?!
Yes
1:21 1:26 :c
Bro who disliked this
Anyone think that beach bears mouth it opening to fast
do you know what shobiz pizza is ??
This comment doesn’t make sense
the Knoxville showbiz pizza
Music names?
Theme from the monkees, Daydream Believer, Steppin Stone, Last Train to Clarksville, I'm a Believer, a Little Bit Me a Little Bit You, Pleasant Valley Sunday, and then the monkees theme again.
Any body know this place as razmataz instead of rockifire
.... No...
They really needed to clean them up a bit lol
They're in perfect condition?
Monkees*
beta Rolfe???
Shrek 3:18
someBODY!

Yeah, the reason Rolfe didn't sing much is because he was actually a terrible singer
