Mr. Dressup

January 26, 2024October 19, 2022 by Pyra Draculea
Noah and Glen are talking at the beginning of the Battle of the Tribute Bands gig before either has gone onstage. Glen is wearing his usual: a grey t-shirt, dark jeans, and his signature red bandana headband.

Robot Research

June 12, 2024October 14, 2022 by Pyra Draculea
Why would Noah want to actually wash the windows when he can spend days researching robots to do it for him?

Noah’s all about conservation… whether that’s water conservation or his own energy remains to be seen.
