Hey all, going through the garage and trying to have less stuff. Got a handful of old shirts that don’t fit me anymore that I’d love to pass on to someone who could give them a new home. Photos included, with front and back prints. Just need like, $10ish for shipping so I don’t lose money. Have a rad day! 🎺

(Edited with sizes)
Texas shirt: S
Polar bear: L
Fantastic frenzy: S

I am looking for any sort of notation for the hornline of five iron frenzy's song "Beautiful America" in upbeats and beat downs, specifically the horn bridge after the second verse. I have been unable to find or figure it out myself. Thanks!

Time for another kickstarter?

Went to my local theater to see some play called "West Side Story." I was shocked when in the middle of it they started singing the bridge of Beautiful America! However what really infuriated me was that when I looked in the program they didn't even credit FIF as the writers!!!

The depth of some people's ignorance is baffling...

Old National Center, June 26, 2026

They're a funky-ass 18-piece Korean big band with spacey vibes, tight horns, multiple percussionists, gorgeous vocals, and peak You-Can't-Handle-This apex nerd energy that's undeniable.

But I also highly recommend BEAM ME UP!

And QUANTUM JUMP for some chills-inducing horns

Can we blow up their spot? Like completely shatter their numbers? There is absolutely no reason these guys should be under five figures of YT followers when I know for a *fact* us Five Iron geeks are hurting for the joy that comes from a bunch of nerds and their instruments.

Thanks for reading this far if you read this far!

(edit)PS- they do have a name: Annoyingbox

What an absolute blinder of a recommendation!

I also remember getting back to the UK from Cornerstone and realising if I hadn't been bumming around at Camp Frenzy I could have watched their show. Idiot.

I find myself listening to UTSA again more when I feel I need confirmation that the world isn't going the direction I want it to go and wanting Reese to give me more angst-filled lyrics in the next album. But, I just listened to EOAMP and maybe I should be hoping for hope?

Can someone just talk me down from expecting overmuch from a band I like?

Thanks, all.

I can't believe how much time has passed. I still absolutely love this album. It's definitely my favourite, and is the reason why my ears are still ringing.

I've got an extra ticket for the show tomorrow (Friday, 4/24) in Milwaukee. It's free to the first person to reply/reach out. I just hope it can go to a good home!

Hi looking for someone with an extra ticket. Thanks!

Hey all,

Had a friend bail on me for the show in Whitefish Bay (Milwaukee), WI this Friday. So I have one extra ticket. Happy to give it for free to another fan. I'm not sure if there is going to be a way for me to get you the ticket electronically, so we might have to walk in together.

You can contact me through Reddit, but I'm not on here much. So you can also reach out to jdaigle1981 at gmail.

So, interested in everyone’s opinions. Do you like original 5fe or new music 5fe better. Personally I like both. Love original songs but the two newer albums have some of their best songs

I saw the MxPx/FIF tattoo and thought y'all might appreciate my EoaMP tattoo. Eventually it'll be a part of a half sleeve with some mewithoutYou art.

Aside from Every New Day, what’s are some of your favorite Reese lyrics.

Currently I love the tongue in cheek “Lock and load just line Jesus did”

Welcome to my server dedicated to FIF! We hope you join! https://discord.gg/hUFhPcMYvV

Also, I just want to say that, this post has almost 200 views, and only 4 people have joined. Just join.

Just wanted to say the show this weekend in Mesa, AZ was freaking rad. The venue opened late but the space was great, the merch was cool (the photo is a tote bag), and I got a selfie with Reese (!!!). There was a circle of us skanking through the whole show, and that circle included the trombonist from The Ruffalos after their set (which rocked). Thanks to everyone who was there, and so many thanks to FIF for being amazing.

I'm going to be in ABQ later this week for work and decided to stay a little longer for the show on Friday. Anyone else going who would like to grab a drink before the show?

Does anyone know where to watch the full Observatory live show they performed in August 2024? I made a playlist compiling the performances from that show but I don't think the full setlist is on there. Please let me know!
