SUMMARY:Benefit Concert for Tim Turner
DESCRIPTION:Benefit Concert for Tim Turner\nFeaturing Musical Performances by Chin Whiskers Band\, Lazarus & AJ Stone and Forrest Hunter \nTim Turner’s Story \nHey there. I hope that his note finds you well! Thanks in advance for your interest in my journey.\nI had an ACL repair in April of 2025\, and rehab seemed to go well\, other than an occasional fall. I chalked up these falls to recovering from knee surgery. After completing Physical Therapy rehab\, I resumed normal activities\, and I went back to work. Others noticed changes in my walking\, and how I looked\, but I didn’t see the changes. I thought everything was going along just fine\, but I was wrong about that…\nDecember 1st\, 2025-I understand that I had 3 falls. The last fall ended with an ambulance ride\, and a couple of days in the hospital for scans\, and observation. This is where the tumor was discovered. It is a benign\, large\, slow growing tumor. The tumor prevented the circulation of fluids out of the skull\, resulting in increased pressure in the brain which caused\, poor balance\, memory loss\, and hearing loss(left side).\nDecember 8th\, 2025- A shunt was placed at the right rear of my skull\, to decrease the pressure inside. Thankfully\, the shunt helped prevent more falls\, and bought some time until surgery could be scheduled for the tumor.\nMarch 9th 2026-Surgery happened early and continued for 16 hours(due to the delicate nerves involved and how the tumor was/is involved in them).  The surge\nComplications..\nLeft side facial paralysis\, silent aspiration with swallowing\, 2 types of pneumonia (which required strong antibiotics\, and intubation for 1 week). During this time\, I lost over 25 pounds\, and I was very weak. I am still receiving tube feedings(which may last a while)\, but I am able to eat some pureed foods.\nRehab\nAfter the pneumonias were resolved\, I got admitted to an Inpatient Rehabilitation\, program for 3 weeks\, that included Speech Therapy(cognition/swallowing)\, Occupational Therapy(regaining fine motor movement)\, and Physical Therapy(balance/walking). I was discharged to home on April 16th. Luckily\, my wife Kari is a nurse and has been able to work from home and care for me. I have been going to outpatient PT/OT\, and Speech Therapies 2x weekly for each since I’ve been home. I am not able to drive\, yet.  I have an amazing support network that have been getting me to these appointments.(Thank you!!!).\nThe future is uncertain\, another surgery is possible\, radiation to shrink the remainder of the tumor or both. I would love to go back to work\, and drive but these may take a while.\n\nChin Whiskers Band \nChin Whiskers Band is a Minnesota-based group dedicated to delivering authentic\, crowd-pleasing live music with a rootsy spirit and a passion for great songs.

Think Old 97’s and Ted Leo too\, as these are common names mentioned when describing the Over Unders’ simple but complete sound.

Their 2022 EP “No Soap Radio” went to work for them (Featuring “Rhonda” with 58K+ spotify streams)\, landing them a spot at legendary Minneapolis rock club 7th St. Entry\, as well as a slot at Cadott\, Wisconsin’s Rockfest.

Drawing inspiration from legendary acts across the power pop and classic alternative spectrum\, the band delivers a sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

Accompanied by Syan Blackwood on drums\, Alex Radecki on lead guitar\, and Zach Nelson on bass\, she delivers sharp lyrics that cut straight to the core—songs about misogyny\, survival\, heartbreak\, and reclamation. At just 15 years old\, Fiona is a raw force in the modern alt-rock and pop-punk scene.

Drawing from mid 00’s emo giants like Jimmy Eat World\, Taking Back Sunday\, and Emery\, they’ve carved out their own catchy sound. The quartet of John Schreier (vocals and guitar)\, Sean Winner (guitar)\, Charlie Schwandt (bass)\, and Tyler Smith (drums)\, are all seasoned musicians with unique artistic backgrounds. Their broad range of influences coalesce in a diverse sound that is constantly evolving. \nVash the Stampede\nVash the Stampede’s emo-rock EP Ephemeral was written & recorded by vocalist/ guitarist Marty Lee while living in Tempe\, AZ in 2012. But desire to bring Ephemeral to life on stage only sparked after he relocated to Minneapolis in 2020.With friendship as a foundation\, the lineup includes musicians already established in the local scene: Conor Lee (lead guitar)\, Hope Hook (violin)\, Jake Gau (bass) and JT Viele (drums/bgv). Pop  vocals wrapped by thick crunchy guitars and melancholic lead lines define Vash’s sound: heavy yet melodic. Vash the Stampede as a band is “new” but that doesn’t limit the mark they want to make on the local music scene. \n  \nGet ready for a night of fearless\, high-energy rock as three of Minnesota’s most exciting alt acts take the stage at Day Block Brewing. \nFiona Hayes—the 15-year-old pop-punk powerhouse from Saint Paul—is redefining what it means to be young and unapologetically loud.

Backed by Syan Blackwood (drums)\, Alex Radecki (lead guitar)\, and Zach Nelson (bass)\, she turns themes of misogyny\, survival\, and self-reclamation into blistering anthems of defiance. Currently working on her debut album\, Fiona Hayes stands at the forefront of the modern\, female-led punk resurgence—proof that rebellion has no age limit. \nJoining the bill\, Sugarcoat bring their nostalgic yet fresh mid-2000s emo sound to the stage. Emerging from Minneapolis’s dive-bar circuit\, their dynamic blend of punchy guitars and melodic hooks nods to bands like Jimmy Eat World and Taking Back Sunday. Members John Schreier\, Sean Winner\, Charlie Schwandt\, and Tyler Smith fuse their distinct artistic backgrounds into a sound that’s emotional\, catchy\, and ever-evolving. \nRounding out the night\, Vash the Stampede infuse their emotionally charged rock with lush violin textures and thick\, crunchy guitars. Born from Marty Lee’s introspective Ephemeral EP\, the band now features Conor Lee\, Hope Hook\, Jake Gau\, and JT Viele. Their music balances heaviness with melody\, sorrow with hope—a perfect prelude to a night that refuses to sugarcoat anything. \nThree bands. One unforgettable night. Doors open early—grab a pint\, stake out your spot\, and let the amplifiers speak.

SUMMARY:Second Hand Dan | Larrikins | Moneybones
DESCRIPTION:Second Hand Dan\nSecond Hand Dan is a dual-vocalist Minnesotan indie rock band consisting of Collyn Camara (lead guitar)\, Graden Hill (vocals/guitar)\, George Knier (keys)\, Ben Schwartz (drums)\, and Rachel Scott (vocals/bass). The group has been gigging regularly in the Twin Cities for well over a decade. Their evolution is captured across the 2020 LP From Nothing to Nothing\, 2023’s Before We Dry Up\, and the songs they’re currently debuting live. Between shows\, the band is currently in the studio working on the new set of recordings.\n\nLarrikins\n“I want to get stuck in their heads”\, was what Tom Blackburn (song writer/guitarist) was thinking to himself when he decided to try his hand at songwriting. Blending various pop and rock influences\, with an emphasis on catchy/jangly guitars and a strong rhythm section\, Larrikins aims to write songs that are as fun to listen to as they are to play. Enlisting long time friends Brian Wahl (vocals/bass) and Kevin Zech (vocals/guitar) and the addition of Ryan Babiracki (drums)\, transformed the bedroom jingles into hard hitting pop rock bops.\n\nMoneybones\nMoneybones is a rock trio from Minneapolis. Tight and heavy\, yet groovy and melodic. The rhythm section has played together since childhood and their frontman fits like he was always supposed to be there. Three years in\, they sound like a band that’s been doing this much longer. Their one single “False Faces” is out now.\n\n\n\n\nJoin us at Day Block Brewing on Thursday\, August 20\, for an evening of original Twin Cities rock featuring Second Hand Dan\, Larrikins\, and Moneybones. \nHeadlining the night is Second Hand Dan\, a dual-vocalist indie rock band that has been a fixture of the Minnesota music scene for well over a decade.
