Bryson Tiller put on a scarily good vocal performance at Tap1 on October 31.

After all, Tiller the talented songwriter invented his own genre, ‘trapsoul’, and put his creativity on full display on Halloween.

The truth
With his new album ‘True to Self’ out, Tiller had no shortage of recent hits to run through, including ‘Run Me Dry’.

Some of the new tracks got a great response as the artist and his audience reciprocated each other’s energy.

The audience was nothing short of raucous, often singing along to the tunes word-for-word.

Trapping the audience’s attention
As much as the new songs were appreciated, when it came time to close the show, Tiller leaned heavily on his debut ‘TRAPSOUL’ project.

Going from strength to strength in terms of tracks, he delighted the audience who danced, sang and threw their hands in the air to express their joy.

Applause for the vocals
What will stand out the most on this night is the way Tiller sang. It gave an indication he is way ahead of his peers and, after all, the man did invent his own genre.

On this night he showed there was truly no comparison.

A survey carried out by Megafon for TV2 has found that 71 percent of parents have handed over children to daycare in spite of them being sick.

Moreover, 21 percent of those surveyed admitted to medicating their kids with paracetamol, such as Panodil, before sending them to school.

The FOLA parents’ organisation is shocked by the findings.

“I think it is absolutely crazy. It simply cannot be that a child goes to school sick and plays with lots of other children. Then we are faced with the fact that they will infect the whole institution,” said FOLA chair Signe Nielsen.

Pill pushers
At the Børnehuset daycare institution in Silkeborg a meeting was called where parents were implored not to bring their sick children to school.

At Børnehuset there are fears that parents prefer to pack their kids off with a pill without informing teachers.

“We occasionally have children who that they have had a pill for breakfast,” said headteacher Susanne Bødker. “You might think that it is a Panodil more than a vitamin pill, if it is a child who has just been sick, for example.”

Parents sick and tired
Parents, when confronted, often cite pressure at work as a reason for not being able to stay at home with their children.

Many declare that they simply cannot take another day off, as they are afraid of being fired.

Allan Randrup Thomsen, a professor of virology at KU, has heavily criticised the parents’ actions, describing the current situation as a “vicious circle”.

“It promotes the spread of viruses, and it adds momentum to a cycle where parents are pressured by high levels of sick-leave. If they then choose to send the children to daycare while they are still recovering, they keep the epidemic going in daycares, and this in turn puts a greater burden on the parents.”
