If someone wants to, assuming an acquaintance with Nemesis, leave her a message on her commlink and I'll receiving and head in as some extra muscle,
I'm thinking that you were already hired by the venue to keep an eye out (they were running out of gang members), and you'd meet the team that way (perhaps they could bribe you guys to help them, haha)

That would have worked too, but someone already linked me with the invite. Nem needs money so she doesn't care what the job entails right now. (rent is due at the end of the month).

So she's already in the parkinglot, about to see what she can see while she waits.

I'm a little out of the loop on the venue details, but I'll try to fall in as a spider, whether or not the venue wants me to. :3

Its a re-purposed warehouse in Redmond. Nothing really much as far as I've picked up.

Okay, I'm trying to think of motive to be there, only thing that's cropping up is spying on the crowd and intercepting potential traffic towards the warehouse node, and keeping an eye out for hidden 'links. I guess I'll just jump into that, if it needs to be retconned I can do that.

btw if you guys need, and the GM approves (its up to him on if this is allowed) I can RetCon Nem as a bouncer in the back.

She's broke, she needs the cash the club is paying her, but she may be able to help out if bribed.

But since I'd be inserting her into the club itself already, I see that as a tad shady starting off.

Maybe nabo is smart and you're in crowd security, like an air marshal?

I post the little interaction between McClane and Smiley to move things along a bit to get the new team together. I was counting on Nemesis already working as the security. So upon receiving the message she'd be there already. The job is certainly better paid than the few hours of watching over drunk gang members and crazy groupies.
Mr Smith is in already. Upon recognizing Glitch as a possible hacker, he's willing to give the young man a chance for a run, not knowing it may not be the Technomancer's first job in the shadows.
That leave us with getting Freakazoid. I think a spider would simply have control of some cameras and maybe drones to watch over the crowd, as well as be in contact with all Security members to direct them toward potential trouble.

Glitch will have to prove himself before he gets McClane's trust, so maybe Nemesis knows Freakazoid and his lack of loyalty toward the concert organizers, and offers to use him too for the run. That way the team is done, there will be some acquaintance between team members, and we're ready to move forward and we may get an small advantage to get in anyway with both Nemesis and Freakazoid part of the security team.

So that everyone is on the same page: the plan so far is to get in, and a) find and retrieve email from Nabo's commlink, b) if we can get near Nabo, have him reveal what he knows about the originator and possibly how to get to the Disk. We'll have better chances going in from the backstage entrance, avoiding the main crowd, and having easier access to Nabo and his stuffs.
How we get in is yet to be defined. Groupies seem to be allowed access in but we're limited in attractive female ork, tickets are way too expensive, and muscling our way him might not be wise with all those gangers around. So far, coning our way in seems the first choice of action. Nemesis can convince other security we're ok to be in, or McClane can have anyone looking like a pretty groupie with his Physical Mask spell.

I'll be the giant horned tiger on rollerskates. Do you think I could con my way backstage as a groupie? I wonder what my reaction to finding a technomancer will be though, if I can even pick him up as a node?

Ahh, will retcon my posts then.

@Reiper: Cool. It's McClane by the way... :)

@Aryeonos: a couple questions regarding your character: How do you get 16 dice in spoofing? how do you get 4 IP in matrix?

I accidently added my attribute rating to my dice pool when I was reading off of chummer, I get 4 IP because I'm hacking in AR and have 4 IP from improved Reflexes 3.

Improved reflexes is like wired reflexed, it improves your meat IP, not matrix. I believe only a modified 'link will give you an extra IP in matrix, Technomancers not withstanding. 

And your programs are limited to commlink response, which is 5 max at character creation (because of availability). Finally, eventhough you can have Improve Skill (hacking) 4, only a bonus of 2 is applied to your skill if you have it at Rating 4 (max mod is 1.5 skill rating, 6 in your case)

I only have improved hacking and data search at 2, there were some goofups in the character sheet I submitted that I didn't even spot till today. And I thought, that initiative passes were the same if you're in AR, I mean, if I put my icon into someone elses node I get that, but all I'm doing is running commands on my link. And as far as I see System and Firewall don't have an availability, until they hit 7 but that's not core rulebook, I can only upgrade +2 from my starting stats, which my starting system is 4, so I put it up to 6, my firewall is 3 which I upgraded to 5.

But if you have page numbers or what have you I'll give it a look to make sure I'm not breaking any rules.

Still catching up on getting dropped in.

Do I know glitch? If so I'll toss him a message and see if he's interested in a few bucks.

heading home, so will be awake for 30 minutes or so.

It would appear I'm not aware of anyone in character, though if anyone has a comlink that's even on, I'll find it. Not that it'll mean much until I start snooping.

Well, I'll catch you guys in a few hours after I've had some sleep, fill me in on how awesome I'm doing and whatnot.
