[Orrin appears, wearing a beat up old duracloth jacket covered in patches and pins, and an old band t-shirt. He looks happy but kinda stressed. He's standing in front of the bar at Gravity. Genny Nebula is wiping the bar behind him, pulling faces.]
"Hey everyone! I just wanted to so one final news post about SCATTERFEST!

FIRSTLY... It's at sync THIS MONTH (//so tonight for most of us - in the morning for those further East)

We've got MUSIC, most importantly.

[Orrin nods his head wisely]
But take a look at NEWS READ PUBLIC 274 for more info on that.

Be sure to buy tickets for all of our acts by visiting CONCERTS via your mindsim. You can do this in advance or when you get to the show - but please do!

But I'm REALLY here to tell you about GOODIES and PRIZES! So's I can just tell you to look at this instead of babbling on about it at the show when I'm probably gonna be stressed or drunk or whatever.

GOODIES:

EVERYONE who attends the festival will receive an EXCULSIVE and FREE goody bag, filled with all kinds of fun stuff from the festival organizers and our amazing sponsors! There's a cool wristband, a bag, some sweets and all kinds of fun stuff. And it won't be available anywhere but the fest!

There's also gonna be a MERCH STAND selling exclusive stuff, and Gravity have agreed to let us stock some EXTRA SPECIAL DRINKS just for the day - so come along to see what there is!

[Genny Nebula nods, then leans over the bar provocatively and grins.]
PRIZES:

There are gonna be 3 winners drawn at random from audience members who stay for the WHOLE SHOW. The prizes are as follows:

[Orrin reaches for a datapad in his pocket but looks confused as he can't find it. A tall and dishevelled-looking, copper haired human man in a Scatterfest 951 STAFF t-shirt rushes on and hands Orrin a datapad. Orrin looks relieved and chuckles gratefully at the man.]
Thanks, Rhys... so... uh... we got:
