The Lineup: The Earthquakers Men named Jacob Byler, Seth Byler and Isaiah work came together in 1994 to reinvent how much fun people could have if they just left all of their cares at the door and decided to have the time of their lives. Brothers Seth and Jacob had been playing together for about a year bringing together the power rhythm that you hear every night and sometimes taken for granted for it's so smooth yet tight. Isaiah gets a call to come along and add some vocals to the mix. Along comes Micah Shetler from Western Ohio, the most powerful force in rock & roll. Everything becomes play. The Earthquakers recess!!! Rock and roll entertainment was never the same. The Earthquakers Website 28 North What do you do when you have a house crammed full of musical instruments, notebooks overflowing with songs, and a reputation for playing radioactive live sets to fans across the U.S.?

As the green flag signals the start, the spontaneous roar of missing, un-mufflered, dilapidated automobiles, resembling the freeway rush hour and herds of stampeding elephants. The "junker's" radiators start gushing steam geysers, blown tires belch bits of burning, stinking rubber and fenders buckle under the constant banging of bumper-to-bumper collisions. Drivers circle in a frenzy and rip at hapless victims less able to maneuver. Demolition Derby Championships start at 7:00pm In the rush, cars overturn, some completely on their roofs. As the merciless competition dwindles, the tactics become more dramatic. The winners of these contests possess the attributes of a true showman, a bravado, recklessness, nonchalance and insanity.
