This stemmed from Kristen and I watching that 80's flick Labyrinth starring Jennifer Connelly & David Bowie.  The movie has a bunch of Jim Henson style puppet like characters that are pretty creepy.  It reminded us of this pizza place that used to be a popular chain restaurant in the US when we were kids.  It was called Show Biz Pizza but since was bought out and changed to Chucky Cheese's.  The place was basically a giant arcade with this back room where this crazy looking mechanical animal band would play music on stage while you ate pizza.  The band was creepy as hell though and I recall kinda being a bit scared of them...we just wanted to go there to go crazy in the huge arcade.  Anyway, so we decided to google it and the first thing that popped up was a link to this video of the Show Biz Pizza band Rockafire Explosion doing MGMT - Electric Feel.
