so we had some free time on our hands the other day and decided to do a little shooting for ourselves. we got rain and noah in their love lamp rockband outfits and hit the streets to make invisible airwaves crackle with life.
c'mon! it's dancey dance time! i like to dance! go, go, go, rain! do the rain dance! i like to dance! go, go, go, noah! do the noah dance! go, go!
caution!
some of these colors might melt your face off. :)
candy necklace goodness
all the cool kids hang out by concrete pillars. it was my understanding that everyone had heard.
and i must be an acrobat, to talk like this, and act like that.
if noah was mr a to z would that make rain the geek in the pink
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen. Baby, baby, baby...light my way
