The Haps – 1/28/2046

Loud Rock Blood Splash.

Twip from Xibadobbler

 

Oh man, wat can I say? I went for a small show at a small venue and got a big show at a cramped hole!

The Velvet Laser Friday night show at the Hole bar but don’t recommend the grill, was pure Night City. They started with their gig with the thumpin’ Cut and Dry and soon they had the crowd in the palms of their sweaty hands.  Velvet put on a good front show, though Lucid’s back game is on point.  The small stint with the Titay Brothers has followed her a bit, but that’s not a bad thing, the girl knows how to handle a stick or two.  And X, the towering bass player gave all in attendance a chance to be part of the show, struttin his stuuf.

But that was not the MAIN ATTRACTION.  In the middle of the show Maelstrom, the metal head gangers themselves, showed up and tried to break up the party.  In true Rocker style, the Lasers whipped up the crowd and next thing you knew there was blood on the holy dance floor. I have never seen a crowd jump to and take care of business like this, reminds me of the old stories about Silverhand and his riots against Arasaka. HOT>

Now the blood wasn’t just shed from the metalheads, and one of Velvet’s mainline fans took a big hit. So what did they do, they cashed in on some Trauma Team Exec and had him airlifted to the hospital. Now that’s style chooms. After it was all said an done, the band took a bow and left as if it was normal Friday!

Talk about an act I will be keeping my eyes on!

Xibba, out.

Metal in the desert? More like rage  on the stage!

Sure all the bands were pretty good you know, but when our Velvet Laser took the stage, this show turned up the GLAM. They rocked all our favorite tracks, and their showmanship was top notch. OMG, did anyone else see Lucid toss and catch a Little Donnie mid drum solo? EPIC.

I heard they rocked so hard they got a contract to keep playing at the Ass End Cafe! Our team is only there to win.

Todays top story is an explosion at a Biotechnica lab. Many workers were hurt, and a few were deaths reported. This was no accident and authorities in the company say that three separate charges were detonated to cause the major damage to their bioorganic research wing. This is a developing story.

Hello all you Chooms and Booms, Xyla here with the deets of the city streets.

First up, we got Militech, the big gun. They have bought up more property in Night City.  Looks like the soldiers are moving in. What this will bring, anyone knows, but all I know is that they better not be brining in any of that patriotic bullshit from the East Coast.

Next up was a show down in the low down part of the isle, where a local building, inconspicuously named “Biolab”, was busted up and filled with holes. The Blue Squad reports that the perps stole some valuable equipment, and may be responsible for various other science related heists in the city. They said surveillance got some good mug shots, though the computer systems were fried and lost most of the footage. Remember folks, if you wanna stay anon when running, mask up or get locked up!

And finally, there was a sighting of Santa on this dark and cold winter night, as Santa Claws and his gang attacked the low rent apartments next to Tokyo Town’s hottest new club, the High Court. From the body bags leaving the scene, it looks like we may not be getting any more presents this year!

Thanks all and keep it frosty until I see you in the new year!

Xyla- out!

 

 

Haitian refugees have flocked to Night City and with them The Voodoo Boys.

 

Stay tuned as PopMedia’s Wire has more….

Good Evening Night City!

The Pacifica Playground has the stirrings of a cultural war this evening. Many of the refugees have taken work in the Pacifica Playground. Taking on much of the manual labor or low-level positions with even lower pay. These refugees proud of their heritage have started to come in to conflict more and more with the Voodoo Boys, taking heavy casualties in the process. Machete hacked bodies have begun to left in the open in the playground, drawing attention of the Corporate investors.

   

I recently spoke with the Haitian Community Leader – Marie-Jeanne Lamartiniére and she spoke very passionately about the recent outbreak of violence.

 *Feed cuts to a holo of Marie-Jeanne*

“These… Voodoo Boys do not represent the proud culture of the Haitian people. Dey are butchers and thieves, spreading their violence and beliefs among the most desperate of us.”

 

 

While speaking with local residents the Voodoo Boys were described as terrorist gang of drug dealers. They engage in weird magic rituals, and deal non-synthetic drugs to tourists near the theme park.

While no visitor deaths have been reported, NCPD is asking for those in the area ensure they take precaution during the evening hours.

Also if you have any information on the suspected leaders of the Voodoo Boys please notify NCPD for a substantial reward…

Tonight on the News – 12/3/2045

Hey all you edgerunners and chromers, Xyla here with the straight news from a crooked city.

Big news tonight from the Hot Zone – An old foe back in the city?

Tonight there was a reported raid on an old Biotechnica vault, orchestrated by some pollu-terrorists.  OR at least that’s what the air waves have been screaming. A small group of pollution lovin’ fiends found some old vault and popped her open and cleaned out whatever was in there. They made their escape, but were soon cornered in an alleyway. Would these smog-guzzlers make it or not?

Twist. In comes our old archenemy, Arasaka to the rescue. Seems this raiders have friends in high  places. Arasaka wiped out the Biotechnica team, including  a corp at the scene. Funny thing is, there was no reported “official” extraction from Biotechnica, so what was a full goon squad doing there?

Fast forward, the Arasaka Aerodyne and the pollu-terrorists flew free with whatever loot they carried out of there. What could it have been? A new type of bean? A program to save the forests of the future? Just crash my feed with your sub and when I find out, so will you.

Xyla, out.
