After circling around YouTube for a while, these gloriously curious music videos featuring the now defunct Showtime Pizza band Rockafire Explosion have been recently erased off the face of the net. Who knows, perhaps the world wasn’t quite ready to see these animatronic musicians perform such modern day hits as Usher’s Love in This Club and Huey’s Pop Lock and Drop It. Fortunately for us, the videos are creeping back again- and while I’m using that word, let me not downplay how creepy these clips are. If I were to suddenly awaken in the room while this was going on, I would no doubt promptly a) shit myself and b) begin to cry uncontrollably. I’m assuming that is how most children’s birthday parties at Showtime Pizza went once the curtains were pulled aside and Mr. Keyboard Chimp and the gang started playing their music.

Here’s to more videos being produced and the others being re-upped.
