* Sonny Eclipse's technician and announcer is Mike Feedback <ref name= "endor"> http://www.endorexpress.net/database/employees/sonny-eclipse/ </ref>. Since Sonny's stage is above another stage that rises from below, when a live act is set to perform in Cosmic Ray's , Sonny and his stage will actually rise into the ceiling to make way for the new act <ref name= "endor"/>. At this time, Mike Feedback will tell Sonny that its time to take five. When the live act is finished, Sonny will descend from the ceiling and Mike will announce him to the audience <ref name= "endor"/>. Both of these diolouges dialogues are rare as Sonny is not often replaced by a live act.
