CSXno601 Vlogs & RAE
Приєднався 12 бер 2014
This is the secondary account of Rich Thompson (CSXno601). This channel will feature all of my non-railroad content, mainly personal vlogs and (more importantly) footage of the greatest animatronic band in history: The Rock-afire Explosion. I have made a goal of preserving as much of the Rock-afire as I can on photo/video, and I want to share it all with you here. Stay tuned for uploads, as I expect much more to come! Enjoy!
The Rock-afire Explosion, New Years 1987-1988 Show (Video)
Here's a little bonus I filmed on my latest October 2024 visit to Billy Bob's Wonderland: The Rock-afire Explosion's 1987-1988 New Years show! Coming in at 40+ minutes total, this show deserved its own separate video. I tried to keep the cuts down to an absolute minimum so I could get as much of the show as I could. Enjoy!

Billy Bob's Wonderland, Rock-afire Explosion, October 2024 (w/ timestamps)
Переглядів 2,2 тис.2 місяці тому
I guess it's time for another insanely long Rock-afire compilation video! It has been 3 months since Billy Con, so I was overdue to see my favorite animatronic band! Plus, they're all dressed for Halloween! All in all, another very fun visit with a lot of good shows! (I hope you like Beach Bear!) Note - I started having camera issues during the "Faith" show, so I switched to the phone at that p...
The Rock-afire Explosion - "Sal's Birthday" (Video)
Переглядів 3894 місяці тому
Here is the Rock-afire Explosion performing the iconic "Sal's Birthday" on the third day of Billy Con IV in Barboursville, West Virginia. This melancholy tune is synonymous with the late Burt "Sal" Wilson who voiced Fatz Geronimo. He passed away at the end of 2023, but left a legacy for all of us to enjoy for years to come!

Billy Con IV at Billy Bob's Wonderland: Day Three (w/ timestamps)
Переглядів 1,4 тис.5 місяців тому
The final day of Billy Con IV featured another big selection of unique shows, as well as a dance contest by some of the Rock-afire characters! Most of the "new" recently-recovered shows were played again on this day as well! Nearly two continuous hours of Billy Bob's action in this one! I had a really great time at Billy Con IV, and look forward to next year - if there's another Con like this o...

This insanely long video features all of the shows and activities of the second day of Billy Con 4. Again, I tried my best to take scenes of as much as I could! I have started adding timestamps due to the sheer length of these videos! I hope you all enjoy! -Rich (CSXno601) Timestamps: 0:45 - "Magic" 1:52 - "Do You Love Me" 3:53 - "School Days" 5:59 - "Get Ready/My Gal Is Red Hot" 9:34 - "Celebr...
Billy Con 4 Preview!
Переглядів 1,2 тис.5 місяців тому
I have just returned from a nearly 3-day trip to Billy Bob's Wonderland in Barboursville, West Virginia to attend "Billy Con 4," the fourth annual convention to commemorate the Rock-afire Explosion animatronic band that performed in Showbiz Pizza Place locations back in the 80s. This video, just under 10 minutes, is only about 10% of the footage I got (or less). Expect many videos to come soon!...

So, I lied... My previous visit wasn't the last of 2023. When I saw that the Rock-afire Explosion had been dressed up for Christmas, I had to make a return. Lots of good shows in this one!

An unexpected trip to Billy Bob's Wonderland in November 2023 yielded quite a few Rock-afire Explosion hits and classics. Some of the shows in this video have been seen before, but there are a good amount of new ones as well (including some Christmas stuff). Enjoy! -Rich (CSXno601)
Billy Bob's Wonderland, Rock-afire Explosion, August 2023 (90+ Minutes)

Another visit to Billy Bob's Wonderland, this time in early August 2023, allowed me to come away with many more shows that I hadn't yet recorded. It's another hour and a half "concert," so to speak! Enjoy! -Rich (CSXno601)

This video features another 90 minute "concert" of the Rock-afire Explosion at Billy Bob's Wonderland in Barboursville, West Virginia on June 27th, 2023. Be sure to stick around to the end! Some context on that photo - I took it as a joke to send to my girlfriend back in Ohio (to make her "jealous"). It worked! Not really! Anyways, enjoy! Note: Earl was undergoing repairs during my visit which ...

Who here is near this place?
1:12:52 I love this place if it closed I would cry for my whole life 😢
2:54:54 HOW THIS IS GREAT !
Great Job!
I love how they brushed down the bangs of the beach bear on the show stage its really cute, love mitzi’s outfit too lol
1:02:38
I wonder if they're ever gonna get the curtains working again
Hopefully at some point!
I just wish they did disco Christmas
1:39:22
Beach bear.. sir- is your leg ok 😭
Dooks legs could be better and all their lips are chapped due to no one creating better quality masks. They need to add something to the lips of the latex to make them stronger to last longer
@@yackary1234 I hope for new masks soon!
Dook and Billy Bob need new masks the most currently!
Someone screwed up Beach Bear legs!!
@@yackary1234 Yeah, his one leg snapped from all the movement and needs welded. They're currently working on finding a way to have it fixed, to my knowledge.
Finally dook got his wrist movement wiggles like 80’s dook
Im going to be starting here hopefully in January, I'll be doing lots and lots of work on the show.
@@showb1zlov3r Very nice! Winter makes it harder for me to visit at this time of year, but I definitely plan to be back sometime in the next couple months, if possible. I look forward to seeing your work!
Are you going to be the new tech are you giving them official mask
Showbiz lover I am super sorry for the questions but are you going to work there forever
@@Justakidthatlikesthe80s Ill be there atleast a few times a month
Glad to see they're getting festive with the decorations and Christmas segments. Also Beach Bear's leg being crossed towards the end is like Scandia Golf & Games all over again, hopefully his broken loose leg can be fixed at some point.
@@sethhorst6158 The tech kept propping it like that, but it kept falling back off. They're hoping to get it fixed soon, to my knowledge.
Yay! Was looking forward to a trip when they’re back in the holiday outfits! Great video as usual! Also the Christmas covers are sooosososo good 😆
@@Aoife_777 Thank you, I appreciate it! I was happy to get all the Christmas stuff as well! It's all really good, and we don't get to hear it that often.
46:10
It's VENUS!!! :DD (p.s. one of my favorites)
Hi Happy Holidays ❄️🎄 thanks for sharing this with us The Rockafire Explosion 💥 looks great in their Christmas outfits too 🙂💜
@@danielwhiteside6876 Thank you! Happy Holidays!
@Rockafire1993 your welcome same too you as well 🙂
I like beach bear's New hairstyle tbh
@@Uhh438 Same!
41:49 There's my song request! It was great meeting you there (literally unexpected). Hope we hang out again soon! Amazing video as always! :D
@@DrakeG51 "Tune Machine 2" is a good one! I plan to head back sometime in the next couple months, it I can. Winter makes it very tough this time of year! Good meeting you, though! I'm sure I'll see you again at some point.
They have on Halloween costumes in September and October
man dook reallly needs a new mask
God. Literally the only big problem I have with BBWL's show atm is dook's mask. If they can sort that out, then I would be so happy!! Nonetheless, at least we have footage of this show at all!!
@FortuneStar97 They're trying to get a couple new masks soon, so I'm hoping Dook will look better again before long! I personally hope they can manage a new compressor at some point. I'd like to see Beach Bear move fully at BBWL again!
When i went to matlock they didnt play talking in your sleep, the show schedule said they were but they replaced it with the fnaf 1 song sadly
@tomstertomfoolery That's unfortunate to hear, but hopefully you'll be able to get Talking In Your Sleep sometime. It seems to get played a lot now, especially since it was used in the FNAF movie. Someone else actually requested it here this day, but I wasn't complaining lol. It comes with Talk To Ya Later, which I also like a lot! Anyways, thanks for watching!
When was this recorded?
Just this past weekend!
That Beach Bear mask looks great!
OMG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO BE RECORED!!!! Thank you sososoososo much
HI BESTIE!!!
@@Aoife_777 Anytime! I have wanted footage of this show too!
@@showb1zlov3r hiii!!!!
also I forgot to mention! IM GONNA BE WORKING THERE SOON!!! :DDDDD !!! Im gonna be helping zoey with the show!!
Wow, that's awesome! You'll definitely see me around from time to time! Hopefully you have fun! I'm glad to see fans getting to work on the show!
@@Rockafire1993 Of course! Id love to play shows for you too!
@@showb1zlov3r Definitely! I look forward to it!
@@showb1zlov3r That’s awesome! I’d love to work at Billy Bob’s. If they allowed me to do anything in regards the show, I can replace masks lol.
@@showb1zlov3r I plz don’t let the show get bad condition
What a great show!!!! One of My favs!!!
Same! I've wanted to get footage of this one for a while!
Great seeing you visit the RAE again!
Definitely! I'll visit until I physically can't anymore!
Keep up the great work man! can't wait to see you next billy con!
@@showb1zlov3r Definitely will do! I look forward to the next Con and seeing you and everyone again as well!
WOW, great shows! They’re playing some cool stuff, also love that they programmed a rick bailey song
Thanks! I am very happy about the Rick Bailey ones, too! I hope they keep playing them!
Mi favorite song 1:43:50
How is Billy Bob’s Mask ripped again already?! Speaking of masks Dook really needs a new one
Not sure, but fingers crossed the new masks show up soon!
How are these still playing 😮I thought they were only playing at the convention
@@Rockafirefan121 The lost ones?
@@Rockafire1993 yeah
@@Rockafirefan121 They still have them, thankfully!
Hi good morning thanks for sharing this with us love seeing The Rockafire Explosion 💥 perform 👍🙂💜
Anytime! Thanks!
@@Rockafire1993 your very welcome 👍🙂💜
Nice as always. The band is always ready for Halloween as what I realized now. I need to go there soon as well! 2:38 Tribute to the circus! 1:58:52 BEACH BOYS!!! :)) 2:15:12 They're already ready for Christmas lol
Yeah, some good shows this time around! I appreciate it!
Do y’all have instagram so you can send me footage of the show you recorded for me?
how are the masks already tearing
I am the one who requested this song at Billy con this year. It is a wonderful song RIP to Burt Wilson 😢.
YOOOO thats me at 42:24 !! Thanks for filming that haha!
Man I’d love to see the rock afire explosion at least once in my lifetime but this place is 11 hours from me and I can’t justify the trip. I’m jealous of those who live closer to this location
Somehow I just caught this. I live 4 hours away myself, and I even have a difficult time making visits as much as I'd like. 11 hours would definitely be a challenge! I'll make sure to keep filming as many shows as I can for those who can't make it often or live too far!
mitzi's santa hat flicking into her face whenever she moves her ear is cracking me up
Dook’s part in this song where he sings “light up a candle, one for every year that’s gone” always makes me emotional… hits hard
@@showbizlittlerock Agreed entirely! That's probably my favorite part of the song!
I was billy bob for the live performance! It was my first time ever in a mascot costume and I had about 7 hours of practice😅 they weren’t gonna do the show originally but I agreed to help! Lots of fun! Good video I’m also the person writing teen angel at the beginning and I was doing a lot of dancing with my pal Juju who played Mitzi.
@Aoife_777 I think you did great in the dance contest! I was really happy when it happened, because I had been looking forward to seeing the walk-arounds in action lol. Juju did really good as Mitzi, too! I appreciate the compliments on the video! I tried to include as many scenes of the crowd and fans as I could, and I'm happy I'm getting to know who some of you are on here now! I hope to see everyone again at Billy Con 5!
@@Rockafire1993 yea the con was amazing!! I enjoyed watching all of the videos. Will definitely be going to the next con!!!
I remeber when I started crying at Billy con and everyone came over to give me a hug. Me and my friend JuJu started crying alot.
I think I might remember! This song is pretty emotional. The "light up a candle, one for every year that's gone" line is really sad!
@@Rockafire1993rip Burt Wilson aka since he was my favorite person because he voiced fatz who is my favorite character
❤
Rest in peace Burt Wilson.. This song makes me in tears when I hear this during my visit.. it's a nice memory for sure.
This was actually the first time I got it on video. I was happy to finally record it. Definitely emotional!
