I finally found a use for augmented chords! Apparently they're good for more than just slamming out during tense moments in soap operas! E.G. You slept with my father's ghost?! (AUGMENTED CHORD!) I was writing a little classical piece for piano and I'd just used the VI chord just before the final cadence, and I didn't want to go V-I of V7-I So I used III but instead of it being the normal major, it was augmented. Let me tell, you, gentlemen, it is a sexy sound.
AUGMENTED CHORDS!? ME!? Don't mind if I do!

I've just put one out thanks Jolly, maybe next time !!
Well if it is an augmented 9th go on then.
They are just the best chords to end a bit of 12 bar on !!!
like in the jazzy blues jam !!!
oh yeaarrrrrr

Ohh, good thinkin'! Hey, is the jazzy blues jam a regular 12 bar I IV V type thing? Or does it have a III instead of the four?

Hahaha, sure you are, man. Well, I III V sounds pretty cool if you ever want to experiment over it.

The V chord augmented sounds pretty cool too. i.e. V7(#5), then resolve to the root for something traditional, or VIm for something alittle different.
