Earl Schmerle is part of The Rock-afire Explosion's comedy act, sharing stage right with Rolfe DeWolfe. Earl is a ventriloquist's dummy, located on Rolfe's right hand. He usually teases Rolfe relentlessly, calling him a geek, making frustrated noises, etc., and seems to have a mind of his own. Earl also sings lead vocals in many songs.

With the exception of a period in the mid 1980s where ShowBiz Pizza Time produced its own Rock-afire showtapes, Earl has been voiced by Aaron Fechter.[1][2]

Development

In the development of the Rock-afire, Earl is the only character that did not originate as a character in either the Wolf Pack 5 or The Hard Luck Bears. However, Earl's voice closely resembles that of the Wolfman from the Wolf Pack 5.

Concept Unification

During Concept Unification, Earl's animatronic was removed entirely, as the right arm assembly containing Earl was replaced during the conversion of Rolfe's animatronic to Chuck E. Cheese.[3]
