the Accelerators played strong and recorded steadily for almost 4 years. Made 3 full length cd's (Geared up for Lights Out 2004, Overhauled 2005, and Haven't U Heard... 2007), and two 7" record singles (Nowhere Near Funny 2006, and Black Widow 2007 split vinyl)....went thru 4 drummers, and then got too old, and too tired to play anymore :) Bob, Jim, and Taylor continued playing music in other bands, and Dustin just got (too busy with work) fatter! Check out the members new bands, some are in the Top Friends. Thanks to everyone for many awesome shows. Over and Out.
