The Augmented Fifth - 12/10/2017

Sunday, December 10, 2017

Had enough yet? No? Well fine then.

We're on week 3 of 3 in-between Thanksgiving and Winter Break and by some miracle, we're all still kicking. Seeing as how we've had our first real snowfall and that we're headed towards a break, Fifth House is going to start the holiday celebration early. Get ready for an Augmented Fifth Christmas Part 1!

Fifth House is headed to Philadelphia this week as a part of LiveConnections and can't wait to be in Jason Vieaux's backyard. Also, maybe we'll find some National Treasure with the map we found on the back of the score for Living Language.

If you're in Philly, come out to see us!

All this time I thought this was a song about feelings. Turns out it was about a large group of oddly named people. That's why you all read this right? To learn stuff? You're welcome.
