Summary
Alessa P. of The Daze needed a couple reliable runners to help at the door with a concert. The act, Sex Grimace, is highly sought after by talent agents and both the lead singer Patty Cake and Alessa P. anticipate a Horizon agent to swoop in once the surprise concert gets leaked on the Matrix. The Horizon corp vehicle needs to be turned away from the club. No killing the driver or agent, but short of that, anything the runners can think of to shoo them away is golden.
Background
Patty Cake is the nom de guerre of Patricia Astoria. Patty was raised within the corp-bubble that is Horizon and while Horizon encourages its more creative corp-citizenry to go on sanctioned rumspringa Patty took off and refuses to ever come back. They only plays in small venues, doing what they can to prevent Horizon from ever getting a hold of, and profiting off, their music.
The Meet
Alessa P. reaches out via the ShadowHaven network to find two warm bodies, really ANY two warm bodies, who can help provide a little extra (and specialized) door security at the concert that night. Both runners agree (Thunder and a new runner playing the pregen Trash Can Pete.)
The Plan
Trashcan Pete summons an Air Spirit to help dissuade the Horizon corp convoy from arriving and bothering Patty Cake. Thunder comes as big, visible muscle hoping that will also be persuasive in its own right.
The Run
Both Trashcan Pete and Thunder arrive at The Daze and stow their excess gear. Trashcan Pete buys a bunch of cheap bar food and takes it across the street to persuade, very successfully, a group of squatters to go out and be some eyes and ears and let them know when the convoy is approaching.
Low and behold, the concert is loudly but barely underway before the squatters spot a fancy armored corp-car heading towards the runners. Trashcan Pete calls upon one of his Air Spirits services and sends it to use its magic to create an accident. The Horizon car crashes and, seeing a manifested spirit, the driver quickly reverses the damaged car and flees from the neighbourhood as fast as they can, bumper sparking and scraping the entire way.
Aftermath
Both runners earned their paltry but quickly earned reward of a thousand nuyen, and the appreciation of both Alessa P. and Patty Cake.

Player After Action Reports (AARs)
Trashcan Pete and I (Thunder) met up at The Daze to protect the band Sex Grimace and particularly Patty Cake from Corporate Music Agents and other corporate scum without interest in the music itself.
There was a a big crowd, loud music and decent bar food. Trash Can Pete donated a nice dinner to the homeless on the other side of the street, who in return spread out to scout for corps getting closer. After a warning that the corps agents were coming, Pete got ready and sent a spirit after them who caused quite an impressive car crash. I didn't even get to bust the window of their car or try to tip their car over before they fled the scene.
The rest of the evening was quiet, except for the loud music.
Good fun and great company. Thanks Trashcan Pete for a blast!
