They do come into the breakfast room at 10 and are allowed to silently protest with cardboard signs. Other than looking out of place they don't really bother anyone in there.

That said, if you are on an American time zone and wanted to sleep in, there is absolutely no way you would be able to sleep through the drumming after it begins at 10am.
