2017 Kia Sorento Brochure PDF Download

Hi guys, I had to dig around to find the 2017 Brochure for the Kia Sorento, so I figured I’d just make a post to make it easier to find. The 2018 and 2016 brochures come up easily and there are trim differences between the 2017 and 2018. I was surprised that Kia hid this in such a strange part of the site, but, here it is:

Top 10 things you should know about visiting New York in 2012

The top 10 things you should know about visting New York, by Dion Roy

I have a lot of friends/fans/family who come into the city with no clue, so in an effort to save a few new friends from making the same mistakes, I’m going to give my top 10 tips for visting NYC. Now when you come visit for a show or for vacation, you can’t say “Dion, you should’ve told me.”
I’m not a travel expert, so this is by no means meant to be taken seriously, but my fellow New Yorkers should get a kick out of this.

  • 1. Mama Sbarros – At the top of the list, goes Sbarro. I realize that many of you aren’t familiar with it or what it is. What’s important to know is what it isn’t, and thats Italian Food.
  • 2. Olive Garden – Same rules as above, the Times Square Olive Garden also isn’t Italian food. Unless you are in the mood for Salad and Breadsticks as a meal.
  • 3. The Lower East Side, is not the “East Village”. If you are South of Houston on the East side, it is the Lower East Side. North of Houston on the East side is the East Village. This brings me to my next point.
  • 4. How-stin – Forget everything you learned in Grade school U.S. Geography. The major street running East to West just above Canal street is… Houston. Say After me. HOW-STIN. The ginormous city in Texas is – HEW-STON. HOW. HEW. Make this mistake and it will be held against you for years.
  • 5. She’s got legs. – My little rule of thumb, if you are less than a 5 minute walk from your next destination. Walk. If that’s too far for you, you should go back to Philly.
  • 6. The Yellow ones don’t stop, or slow down. – That yellow blur you see coming at you at 90 Miles an hour is in fact a Taxi. This taxi driver IS on the phone, most likely in deep conversation with a friend in a foreign country. She/He’s pretty sure that they can blame your death on you if you decide to linger in the crosswalk against the light.
  • 7. Wheels of Death – This is a bit politicized at the moment, but in the past year or 2, New York decided that it would be a great idea to move parking spots into the middle of an Avenue so that there’s a dedicated lane for Bikers. In theory, nice. In practice, death. I have seen many Bikers drive right into an open cab door, so when you get out of the cab look out for people on bikes first. They are also probably on the phone, and hate you because you are in a car.
  • 8. Do not stay in Times Square, Do Not bring a camera to Times Square, Do Not touch anything at Times Square. In general, avoid Times Square. Walk through it once then get the heck out of there, and while you are walking through, stay to the right, don’t walk dead center with your eyes in the air and drool coming through your mouth. Also – no english is spoken at Times Square.
  • 9. Local New Yorkers walk at an average speed of 40MPH. If you are a slow walker, you might want to invest in a good pair of shoes to keep up with your friends / not get trampled to death. They are in a hurry all the time, and appear to have blinders on. We are still generally nice people, and 99 of 100 will give you directions, and at least 1 of 100 will give you directions that aren’t in the opposite direction of where you are going.
  • 10. When in doubt, It’s probably pee. Probably Rat Pee.

So you want to be on the new “Dion Roy” Album? Here’s your chance – Deadline Monday Jan 31st 4PM EST
Hey guys – as I have been working on this new CD, due for April 2nd, many of you have asked to be involved in any way you can, and I woke up this morning and thought of a great idea. Or at least I think so, and I rule. 🙂
One of the new songs we are working on here in Santa Monica has some room for a few claps, dings, bangs, snaps – heck anything that sounds cool.
The best “claps/dings” from the fans are going on the album. There’s room for a few of them, maybe all, but  the ones that make it onto the album will be announced to all the Dion Roy fans.
Keep in mind it can be anything, really, and the funnier stranger it is the better. Anything you get on your flip video, or microphone right on your mac will work just fine.  Even the recorder on your iPhone/Phone will be fine. Just get creative and show me what you have got!

Here’s what you need to do.

  1. Post a Video, Audio file, or Youtube link (preferred) of yourself and your awesome sound effect on http://facebook.com/dionroymusic over the next couple days.
  2. Send a Tweet or Facebook Post to @DionRoy with the Hash Tag #IAmOnDionRoysAlbum and a link to http://facebook.com/dionroymusic included within your post
  3. Email DionRoyMusic@amp3pr.com and let my team know you posted it!

Here is an example!

Rules:

1. Be Creative, but certainly don’t worry about making it professional. Your Flip or iPhone is perfect for this.

2. Once you enter  you agree that I can use the sound recording  however I want, anywhere, anytime anyplace and there will be no compensation for this ever. Sorry. 🙂

3. Don’t Hurt Anyone doing it, or damage anything.

4. The Deadline is Jan 31st 4PM

Time is of the essence, Send em soon! Can’t wait for you guys to hear (and be included) on this New CD!

The new CD will be out Saturday April 2nd and the Release will be at Dominion in NYC http://bit.ly/DRCD3 for tickets!

Put down that drink! A quick message, just in time for 2011.

Hey ya’ll!

I just wanted to take a second and say a quick Happy New Year’s to all of you guys.
It’s been quite a year. Singapore, Howard Stern, ABC/FOX Morning shows, National tours, Lots of TV placements, Charting on iTunes and of course – lots of craziness along the way. Thank you so much for all your support this year, so many of you have been so great about spreading the word- and because of that it’s going to be an awesome 2011.

Im wasting no time, and will be recording in Santa Monica beginning January 16th – so there should be another CD ready for the spring of 2011! With your help maybe we can beat 2010’s #8 and hit #1 on the iTunes chart this year!

I do value what you guys have to say, and I want to hear from you – I do check e-mail quite often, and I’d love to hear from you guys – just reply to dionroymusic@amp3pr.com , or say hi on Facebook!

Much love, and happy new year.

– Dion

Tour Wrap Up & New Shows

Dion Roy has had a busy fall. First he played 6 successful headlining shows abroad at the TAB music complex in Singapore in late September and then he quickly transitioned into a fall tour that kicked off in early October and saw many dates sell out. The Dion Roy National Tour with Tyler Hilton and Josiah Leming, now officially wrapped, played its final date on November 17th at The Roxy Theater in Los Angeles. Dion had the time of his life criss-crossing the U.S. playing 36+ shows in 46 days and meeting fans from all over the country. Life on the tour bus with Tyler and Josiah was anything but quiet, the guys bonded while playing videos games, hitting movie theaters, and getting up to some crazy antics on their days off (check out the videos below).

Dion is now back home in NYC recovering from life on the road and preparing for his next batch of shows including a December 2nd show in Middletown, CT at The Shadow Room and a December 5th show in Vineland, NJ at Hangar 84 with Ryan Cabrera. Fans can also consider their holiday wishes granted, Dion has announced that we can look forward to a new 2011 album release, more info on that to come.

 

Dion Roy on MTV’s The Challenge: Cutthroat

On Wednesday, October 27th,  MTV had a pleasant surprise for the ears of anyone tuning into to The Challenge Cutthroat! Dion Roy’s “Long Way Down” was selected to make an appearance in Episode 4: ‘Swat the Hell’.  If any fans out there come across a clip of the moment itself, let Dion know on Twitter or Facebook.  Until then, check out MTVs recap of the episode right here.

I’m Back From My Summer Tour!

Back in NYC at last for some much needed R & R after criss-crossing the Eastern Seaboard all the way down to Tennessee, where rock & roll took it’s shape and the blues was born!  This experience has been nothing short of amazing (but also exhausting).  I had a blast playing in a different city each night and getting the chance to meet and chat with fans from all of over the country.  Touring with Josiah Leming and Todd Carey was also a major highlight, such great guys and incredible performers, it was a true honor.

I have to say, so many fans came out to support this tour, one packed house after another, it was amazing to see so many excited people in the crowd.  To everyone who made it out to a show, thank you for coming, I’m so glad I got to share the experience with you.  To those that weren’t able to make it out to a show on this tour, that’s ok, hopefully there will be more U.S. tour dates to come (wink, wink)!

In other exciting news, I’ll be heading across the Atlantic for 6 tour dates in Singapore starting September 21st and running until September 26th.   I’ll be playing at the soon to be legendary TAB music complex, the Bowery Ballroom of the East.  Playing host to both established international artists as well as local talent, TAB is the first live music venue of its kind in Singapore and possibly all of South East Asia.  This is sure to be another incredible experience, and I’ll make sure to keep you all posted!

In the mean time, check out the videos & photos below from the summer tour, I wanted to share my favorites from each city with you.


True Blood Intro Song – Bad Things by Jace Everett back in play, Season 3 Starts!

Almost a year ago today I wrote my original article on the Season 2 premier of True Blood, and I hardly thought I would see any traffic on my lil music blog for True Blood, but the folks at Google apparently like my preference of words and have kept me in the top 10 spot for over a year now. I recently just watched the first 3 episodes of Season 3 and Mr Bill Compton is just awesome. *** Spoiler Alert *** I mean did you see him twist off his old lady friends head like it was a gummy worm? Man that was cool.

Either way its Jace Everett Season again, and that song is just amazing. Listen to the video below, and I’d love to hear from you guys on what your thoughts are on the new season, like who of you want Sookie to die besides me? 🙂

See you guys around and don’t forget to check out the new EP “The Nearest Light” it recently hit the iTunes chart at #8 for a few days! Enjoy it!

Lyrics to Bad Things by Jace Everett (True Blood Theme Song)

I wanna do bad things with you.

When you came in the air went out.
And every shadow filled up with doubt.
I don’t know who you think you are,
But before the night is through,
I wanna do bad things with you.

I’m the kind to sit up in his room.
Heart sick an’ eyes filled up with gloom.
I don’t know what you’ve done to me,
But I know this much is true:
I wanna do bad things with you.

When you came in the air went out.
And all those shadows there filled up with doubt.
I don’t know who you think you are,
But before the night is through,
I wanna do bad things with you.
I wanna do real bad things with you.
Ow, ooh.

I don’t know what you’ve done to me,
But I know this much is true:
I wanna do bad things with you.
I wanna do real bad things with you.

And heres the Trailer for Season 3 of True Blood :
