Channel description
This channel is about the history and future of The Rock-afire Explosion, considered to be the greatest animatronic rock band of all times (so far). The Rock-afire Explosion appeared in hundreds of Showbiz Pizza Place restaurants in the 80's which changed its name to Chuck E. Cheese in the 90's. The band left Showbiz/Chuck E. Cheese when the restaurant rebranded with different characters and is still owned by Creative Engineering, Inc. and Aaron Fechter, performing live for some traveling events, and performing old and new shows on YouTube. There is also a "Premium Channel" that chronicles the steps being taken by Aaron to bring the Rock-afire back into mainstream America while helping people of all ages pursue their interest in the emerging hobby of home built animatronics. Write to Aaron at [email protected] from more info on the Premium Channel.
