Off Topic: We’re the band of the future and we’re going to assimilate you.

We’re gearing up for some Geek Rock goodness.  Starting at the end of September we’re going on tour and spreading our blend of rock, Flash platform, and iPhone goodness.  We’ve got some new tricks up our sleeves and we’re going full throttle with a set full of original tunes and original tech.

First, come hang with us Tuesday, Sept 29th as we kick off the party at 360 iDev in Denver.  You’re going to see our newest Flash platform live player goodness along with the world premiere of the iPhone song.

Second, come chill at our session Geek Rock with the Flash Platform during 360|MAX @ Adobe MAX in sunny LA.  Seriously, how punk rock is that?  A band that does a tech session.  We’re going to be playing some Compilers lite and taking a dive into the code and technologies that make our Flash platform and iPhone tick.

Third, come check out take 2 of the Ignite Denver house band goodness @ Ignite Denver 5 in Denver.  Casselman’s is a sweet venue and I heard the sound and lights should be tight.  Can’t wait for that.

In the meantime, feel free to check out our newest song uploads.  Keep an eye on TweetJam, if you bring your mobile internet device to any of our shows with you just mention @thecompilers on Twitter to get good ‘ole TTS to make you a part of Rock history.

It’s gonna be a blast.  Geek rock at it’s finest…so get registered for the party:
