The Lone Star Republic
Went a bit further for this week’s gig. Honestly it was more of a mini-tour than anything. Took a private plane (courtesy Biotechnica, thanks Grim ;) ) all the way to Houston, Texas; the Lone Star Republic.
I guess I never paid much attention to the Republic at all since I assumed it was a wasteland full of loonies doing whatever they wanted swinging their guns around like it was nothing. Then I realized that it’s the exact same where I live so I put it behind me.
The place is actually beautiful. I mean it averaged at or over 100 degrees but honestly what would you expect would happen to an already hot place + global warming. Eh, I’m used to it.
Anyways I performed at 2 pretty well known clubs in the area and holy shit were these people nice. Some of the most polite people I’ve ever met. You could imagine my surprise when I had expected to see insane gun freaks like how the Mediacorps portray this place. It was actually really refreshing.
On my final night (it was tonight, writing this on the redeye home) I actually performed at a pretty large and semi-important club. I think it’s actually the biggest place I’ve performed at yet: “The El Dorado.” It was a massive club with probably a couple thousand people on multiple floors of the building. I mean I couldn’t really tell if they were listening to me with everything going on but I sure as hell knew they could hear me because the sound system there was a beast. Possibly the greatest day of my life.
Moral of the story is that Texas rocks and I’m definitely going back soon.
See you all soon back in Night City.

The major events and journals in « Loverboy »'s history, from the beginning to today.
Deceased.
well, shit.
4th November 2045If you are reading this message, that means that I, « Loverboy », have died. I’ve always imagined going out while holding my phone with my thumb hovering over the the “Delete All Music” button, and it seems that was the case. I programmed that button to send this message, while simultaneously not being a bluff. Yeah, my music’s really gone. There are backups of my music at my base, Terra, but good luck accessing those. You all have meant to much to me during my time as a rockerboy, and I am exceptionally grateful for each and every one of you. Now, here’s the personal bit: I am François Jacques Dufort. That probably means nothing to you all, but the secrecy in my private identity was crucial to my message, but now that my message’s goals have (hopefully) been achieved, I felt that I should maybe get a bit closer to you all. I love you all, goodbye. <MESSAGE SENT AUTOMATICALLY>
4th November 2045FANS— I AM ALIVE AND OKAY... partially. Got picked up by trauma team in the midst of a firefight gone wrong. In an attempt to dole out vigilante justice whilst at a business event (stay tuned), it became clear that me and my associates were not strong enough to dispose of our opponents, and I became critically injured— my leg was dismembered and, next time you see me, I might have a shiny new cybernetic leg (or a classic prosthetic leg, or maybe my meat leg can be attached, we'll see). Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers, concerns, chants, attempts to call summon satan, and anything else you did to try to help me. You all are wonderful and I wouldn't trade you all for the world. I'll try to write something while I'm in the hospital. – « Loverboy »

03:16 am - 05.06.2022The list of amazing people following the adventures of « Loverboy ».
Social
Birthplace
New Orleans, LA
Current Residence
Terra (Night City)
Contacts & Relations
Contacts with many other Rockerboys, but has the occasional childhood friend that grew up and did whatever wacky thing they did.
Honorary & Occupational Titles
"Loverboy"
Wealth & Financial state
Not wealthy, and wasn't wealthy in the past, but hopefully that would turn around if he gains more popularity.
NOTE: He prioritizes music over everything, but he is not one to shy away to the chance of earning money, in fact, that's the main reason why he would do anything non-music related. Hey man, the world runs on money.
Religious Views
Raised Catholic, but his beliefs have probably shifted over time. Religion simply isn't his top priority at the moment. Maybe he'll re-evaluate later.
Social Aptitude
Very, very, very, very social and outgoing.
Mannerisms
Rebellious, arrogant, and proud, but never shies away from being quite charismatic.
Speech
A very smooth talker with an even smoother voice. Half of his popularity comes from his singing ability, with the other half split between his guitar and his looks, probably not equally.
These statistics are not grounded in anything, by the way. It just sounded cool.
