Gasoline Dion brings the rock. We hail from Pittsburgh, PA and we're here to have a good time, and bring you along with is. With our 8 feet planted all over the place from rock, to punk, to metal, to pop... we've got a sound that isn't afraid to bounce in & out of a few different genres.
Why this name?
Gasoline Dion was an idea for an old band name that we thought was funny... not sure where it came from... Ha ha ha.
Do you play live?
Yes, we play live. Anywhere. Yes, we like it. It's a special moment every time one of our friends or fans sings along.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Well, I hate to sound clichéd, but the internet has revolutionized the music industry. It's a great way to get heard, to make all kinds of contacts, & get a fan base... with more ease than you could have done in years past.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Sure, why not?
Band History:
Gasoline Dion brings the rock like no other. An aural assult that comes at you from all sides. It's nearly impossible to tell just how they will rock you next. The members all met in an all night deli somewhere in the Louisiana swamps where a chance mention of songs about poop brought them to the notice of each other. Endless trips to see monster truck rallies have destroyed the hearing of the band to the point of no return. An early member, keyboardist Dwayne Stephenson, spontaneously combusted on stage at the second ever GD show for Timmy Goldstein's bah mitzvah. Little else is known about Dwayne except that he got all the chicks. The surviving members, have trudged on, knowing that they must bring the rock for the good of the Earth. No really, Gasoline Dion will save the planet through rock n' roll. Nostradamus predicted that when we are finally visited by extra-terrestrials, the introduction will get of to a horrible start. The aliens will declare a war upon our planet, then the music of Gasoline Dion will be employed to calm the proverbial waters. We will all sing about feces, porn, and beer, and celebrate life is all of it's glory. It's your duty to listen to Gasoline Dion.

The surviving members have endured heart aches, car crashes, stage injuries, and countless bouts with penis envy. Mike and Tommy have also cleared up their animosity toward each other. No one is quite sure what really happened but it apparently was over bacon. When asked about the band's new direction, Tommy tell us that we can expect more songs about his batle with a fatal addiction. In the new song "Pieces of Meat" he talks openly about his stint at fat camp.
