Recording Music, Driving, Food, Beer, Bail, :) and those tanks of gas don’t pay for themselves.

  • Post a link to Dion Roy on your Facebook Profile, Myspace, Twitter – Every Day!
  • Forward this email! Tell a friend about this band you like with a link!
  • Anywhere and everywhere you can post a link is a little help!
  • Tell a friend to sign-up to the mailing list, and get a few free songs!
  • Buy a ticket for a friend if you can’t make it! We’ll raffle it away!
  • Embed a song or widget on your myspace, facebook, anything!
  • Say Hi to me on my Facebook, Twitter, Myspace profiles I write back to almost every comment! Tell me what you like, Tell me what you don’t!
