About Me


You want to see The COMPROMISE play in your city?
I CAN'T HEAR YOU! Oh yeah, you're using the Internet.
Demand us! Or just hang out, listen, and watch!
It's easy-peesy, lemon-squeezy:
Just tell your closest peeps to check out our profile. They can help in two ways: join this here Eventful deal by clicking the big schoolbus-lookin' Demand it! button and continuing through a cacophony of silly signup procedures and bullstuff...
...or you could just simply listen to our profile player, watch our videos, and maybe spew some comments! We'll wholeheartedly respond to them with vigor, intensity, and resolve! And more than likely visit your town, looking for a bar to play in, and a party to commence! (seriously we hope you have like a keg or something that'd be sweet)
Thanks for checking our profile and taking the time out of your awesome life to do awesome things like listen to music and make dessert and use Myspace and exercise your right to vote and rock 'n roll all at the same time. Holler at some ballers.
