Cyberpunk 2020
The actual board game

So, Playstation access did a 5-part series about this, in which five of them sat around a table with fleshed out characters and played CP2020. I must admit, I enjoyed listening to it quite a bit.

I'd strongly recommend watching all 5 eps, it'll run you about 5 hours give or take, but it's also nice background noise (No spoilers, but the ending is actually pretty tight and the whole series definitely inspired a future character for me, bonus points if you guess which.)

I played CP2020 for about a year. I was in my teens, so we were definitely at the hack and slash, mini-max the crap out of everything and kill stuff phase. Given that, we never really understood what the point of the rocker was.

For those who played, what do you think?

Looking back on it now, it seems like the best use for that character was to create "flash mobs" (to steal a more recent term) and act as a distraction / mobile riot to keep the corpsec busy while the rest of the team got busy doing the real work.

Is there any equivalent of that in Sindome? For example, if a character with a really high performance skill decided to throw an off the cuff concert, could they expect dozens (hundreds, thousands?) of NPCs to show up?
