    "comment": "Hey John, \n     I've been trying to find a way to share the last two years of my life without it sounding discouraging and depressing.  This weekend seems to have shown me the way. My son Nikko, sixteen years old passed away from cancer 50 odd days ago.  His celebration of life was eight days ago.  It was of course sad, tearfilled but also endearing to be surrounded by family, his friends and the community. Of course the good feelings don't stay The roller coaster continues and down we went.  the whole family riding it down.  \n      His thirteen year old sister Emma has been acting like you would expect.  Dark, quiet, interrupted by shouts and tears.  On Thursday night a school night I took her to her first show.  I may have made a mistake...  The band out of Minneapolis is a female pop punk band called Vial.  My daughter was hooked by the first crunch of the guitar and the opening scream of lyric. We both came home sweating, shouting and grinning like we were deranged.  I encouraged her into the \"pit\" but she wasn't ready but CD's and tshirts came home.  \n     We have been dealing with cancer for the longest time to actually have a moment of emotional release was cathartic.  I'm not sure if live music will fix us but she is now diving into female punk singers.  There is hope.  \n\nAlex \n\nPS if you have a second can you play something punk female and loud..  \n--\nVIAL is a Minneapolis-based indie punk trio of best friends: Drummer Katie Fischer (she/they), bassist Taylor Kraemer (she/they), and guitarist KT Branscom (they/them). The trio joined forces via Tinder in mid-2019 and has been blazing a path for themselves since, curating a unique multi-genre amalgamation. Indie rock meets punk influence in soaring melodic hooks ready to sink teeth into all listeners alike, from lifelong punk rockers to budding indie darlings.",
