What a rare find, this is exactly how I remembered seeing CEC live on stage as a kid, complete with a part of a stage that rotates, and wheels spinning by the memorabilia collection (that's how I knew the show was going to start). Back when these shows had effort.
Cool! I was introduced the CEC with a stage that came out earlier than this: The 2-Stage at my local store in Union, New Jersey. Btw, what store did you visit as a kid?
This was my local Chuck-E-Cheese and it had to close down in 2015 because of a fight that happened during a birthday party there and also poop in the ball pit I wish stayed open and then it became a bar and then it just closed and every time I would go to the the bar that used to be a Chuck-E-Cheese I would scream return Chuck-E-Cheese! because I felt it was more awesome when there was a Chuck-E-Cheese and it's sad to see it gone
I worked at this store from 1995 to 1996 and my friends and bosses opened the location. It was opened in January 1995. I confirmed this with the managers and original cast members. The November 1995 stamp may be incorrect, but it is definitely from after August 1995 as the song was not used before he transferred away from this store at that time. Two of the cast members seen that we can identify worked from January 1995 through summer of 1996 when we went off to college.
Alright, this is a rare find. The Chuck E. March, a Scott Wilson 1993 live show, being performed in 1995 with an Cool Chuck head with a derby, on the now closed Commack location? Incredible!
@@Big_Chuck_Official This version of the head is a slightly altered version of the ‘92 one. This one was released in either the summer or the fall of ‘94.
This is an exciting find. The Commack, New York location was near where I lived and I have many memories there. Countless kids I went to school with had their birthday parties there.
@@Big_Chuck_Official oh hey do you have any footage or photos of commack that recently emerged feel free to dm me on Instagram thensbais or email me robnic36@yahoo.com. (:
They shouldve never used this as a live show but rather a meet and greet song so guest arent left out. Just like when the animatronics used to introduce him when he came out during PPT days
Well I asked my mom if she went here with my sister in the 90s she said she was there in 1999 and she remembered seeing the stage and the chunky live show but I wasn’t around for the one stage I w as around for the studio c
Oh that's interesting. Do you know if she has any old home videos (or even pictures) of the Commack CEC? Say from like a bday party or a regular visit?
Why am I watching this, I have to be up early tomorrow. I’m not even a cec fan I’m more of a rockafire guy. Seeing the rotating live stage in action is cool though.
The store didn't close due to the brawl, it was just one of the factors that led to the closure. I assume the store(Parma) brings in some business due to the fact they are getting the new CEC 2.0 remodel soon so I'm pretty sure the store is doing well.
The microphone stand. It obviously doesn't exist today but when the 1-Stage was introduced in the early 90's, Helen had a microphone stand. Now she just has a normal handheld mic.
Behind the turntable next to Helen. (The reason why they did that because they wanted to give the illusion that the chuck e bot came off the stage. At the time they wanted to make CEC magical)
Unfortunately, they were likely trashed. Either that or they were sold (which is unlikely) or distributed to nearby restaurants that needed animatronic parts. There were a lot of New York stores getting Studio C at that time and unfortunately now there are only 4 full band stores in NY :/
Not certain but the owner of the video said it was and it does look like it. What about it looks different? The layout looks the same, from the few pics I've seen of the show it looks pretty much the same.
There were 2 CEC's in Commack. The first one was a Pizza Time Theatre meaning it was the old CEC design before they redid the whole place in the 90's. Then, that one closed down I'm not sure but it was after 1988... since you said you went there in '88 lol. They opened this one in the video in 1994 with the brand new CEC look at the time! In the 90's CEC "reopened" a lot of stores that closed down from either the bankruptcy or just any reason a store closed. Like one of my stores in Wayne, NJ. My friend(who unfortunately passed last summer) Richard went to the Wayne store in 1984 but the current one opened in 1992. They had the same case as Commack.

cec used to look AMAZING in the 90s. plus that microphone stand Helen has is incredibly rare
No it isn't. All 1-Stages were supposed to have it in the mid 90's.
@@Big_Chuck_Official not many got it
How do you know? There aren't many 1-Stage videos on YT from 1994 so we don't know if many stores got it or not.
@@Big_Chuck_Official Cough Cough Hicksville Cough Cough
@@Nerdy_Chuck_E there’s a video of Hicksville from 1994? Or are you talking abt the 96 vid bc it could have been removed by then

Date stamp is correct. I misheard the audio. Apologies. 😁
Cool! Thanks for sharing!
Do you have any footage of this place.
@@scoutmichaeljacksonfan3807 No, but there's more footage in the original: ua-cam.com/video/Q3U5P_p4IhA/v-deo.html

That's not a cool chuck head. That head was released in late 1992 and most stores got it in 1993.
Big Chuck - Oh sorry, that’s just how i call it.
@@Big_Chuck_Official This version of the head is a slightly altered version of the ‘92 one. This one was released in either the summer or the fall of ‘94.
There’s also the version from The Best of CEC TV 1996 that had footage from the 1994 1 stage and 2 stage diagnostics
I just love this song
This is an exciting find. The Commack, New York location was near where I lived and I have many memories there. Countless kids I went to school with had their birthday parties there.
This location is now a Bar Louie. It’s been like that since I believe 2015/2016.
I heard.
@@Big_Chuck_Official now it is closed
Yep
@@Big_Chuck_Official oh hey do you have any footage or photos of commack that recently emerged feel free to dm me on Instagram thensbais or email me robnic36@yahoo.com. (:
I saw it too the one almost next to the large macys that I always get the nerds candy bubble gum
I wish it was still open. Their turntable was so cool (never actually experience when they had a one stage but still it’s cool)
4:13 lol
That was awesome!!!
Hey CEC Master. Can you respond to this comment, please?
@@chucke.cheese2212 I suppose I can.
@@CECMaster Do you know either of the links to your latest videos?
Email me them if UA-cam doesn’t work (trapmachine654@gmail.com).
Me personally I haven’t been here but I hate when a Chuck E. Cheese location closes I have seen a 2 stage in 2017 but not a 1
R.I.P Chuck E. Cheese Commack NY 1982 to 2015
This one opened in 1995. Is that when the old PTT in Commack opened?
Yeah that’s what CEC bros said
1983* I think u meant the ptt that was down the road then they relocated to this store in 95
@@cecbutinnyptt?
Wow!!!
Excellent footage most enjoyable.
Thanks!
AWESOME FIND! This one stage even has the Turntable for the Live shows! The turntable is really Rare, At Least I think
This is an extremely rare video you should be very fortunate to find this gem. This extremely rare video.
It's not extremely rare, it's on UA-cam lol.
But yea we don't have too many videos of Commack let alone videos of Phase 2 Commack
That Eman is very annoying
@Big_Chuck_Official this is such a great video to look back on, such great memories working at this location as a manager. Thank you
I love Chuck E. Cheese
They shouldve never used this as a live show but rather a meet and greet song so guest arent left out.

My mom and dad were there with my older sisters
Cool, do you mean in this specific video or you just went to this CEC before?
Well I asked my mom if she went here with my sister in the 90s she said she was there in 1999 and she remembered seeing the stage and the chunky live show but I wasn’t around for the one stage I w as around for the studio c
Oh that's interesting. Do you know if she has any old home videos (or even pictures) of the Commack CEC? Say from like a bday party or a regular visit?
Just asked she said maybe and also my sister had her birthday there in 1999
I can ask my sister for more details
Chuck E. Commack, ny
This video was filmed 3 days after the first Toy Story came out
Why am I watching this, I have to be up early tomorrow. I’m not even a cec fan I’m more of a rockafire guy. Seeing the rotating live stage in action is cool though.
Atleast you're not a toxic Aaron Aaron fechter fan boy/girl
Remember this reference from Chuck E. Cheese jaspa
Cool!
Rip commack ny 1995-2015
I miss that place sadly it got taken down
If it wasn’t for these sensitive parents
The place would still be open
These people are a hint why it’s getting more dangerous living in Long Island
how come on the original video there no sound at all
You probably have your left speaker muted bc the right one has no sound for me.
I found pictures of Commack on facebook. Just look up “I helped open the Chuck E. Cheese in Commack”.

@@petercaruso2502 hmm I can’t find it is it still up?
R.I.P Commack
The store started to go downhill ever since the 2013 fight. In my opinion it's good they closed but it's still sad. :/
I can see, Even though Parma OH had a brawl, it's still open.
The store didn't close due to the brawl, it was just one of the factors that led to the closure. I assume the store(Parma) brings in some business due to the fact they are getting the new CEC 2.0 remodel soon so I'm pretty sure the store is doing well.
Good
Big Chuck i think its just north olmsted getting 2.0 and maybe warren and boardman. I think parma may have declined the 2.0 remodel
Nice
Cool video
what is helen holding?
The microphone stand. It obviously doesn't exist today but when the 1-Stage was introduced in the early 90's, Helen had a microphone stand. Now she just has a normal handheld mic.
Big Chuck why would Helen hold a Mic stand
since when did commack replace their 1 stage
2004
ok
Wow
What is Helen holding?
Microphone stand
When did this location open
January 23, 1995
@@Big_Chuck_Officialoh wow this store was fresh
Spakdass
Is it is not stopf I've been waiting
Is there anymore footage of this location
Do you have any more pics
Did the showroom relocate
The band marching in is the kids
Have you ever played the arcade game "Spider Stompin"?
My cec location in Oklahoma City is still open with no brawl😀
That's great but this video is abt Commack not okc
Has Tulsa had a brawl
Where’s the chuck e bot
Behind the turntable next to Helen. (The reason why they did that because they wanted to give the illusion that the chuck e bot came off the stage. At the time they wanted to make CEC magical)
Was there a show biz pizza on Long Island?
Nope
Rare
I wonder what they did with these robots
Unfortunately, they were likely trashed. Either that or they were sold (which is unlikely) or distributed to nearby restaurants that needed animatronic parts. There were a lot of New York stores getting Studio C at that time and unfortunately now there are only 4 full band stores in NY :/
What stores have the full band
Hicksville, Amherst, Poughkeepsie, and Staten Island
Is this the one that closed in 2015?
CyberAndrew yes
Are you sure this is commack because I’ve been there millions of times it just doesn’t look right
Not certain but the owner of the video said it was and it does look like it. What about it looks different? The layout looks the same, from the few pics I've seen of the show it looks pretty much the same.
Have you seen the out side of the store
Is the 1 stage in the same spot as the studio c
No, it was in the back.
Oh so the 1 stage was were the game are
Was this the CEC that close in 2015
Spirit Halloween And More oh okay thanks
When in 94 did Commack open?
Commack opened in January 1995
People are saying this location opened in 94. But I remember when I was really little in 1988 going there....

Ohhhh, ok! That makes sense then. Thanks
The original one was across from Jefferys on Jericho. I work at the original one and later at this one both as a manager.
How much is a great place you want want to talk to me scary movies you you
i don’t like the this stage
