Stronger Than Dirt

Rhea - Vocals (and a little bass)
Rhea is our newest old member, or is that oldest new member? She first joined Dirt in 2003 (pregnant, of course), dropped two kids, left in 2006, cheated on us in a slew of other bands, squeezed out Babies #4 and #5, and finally returned home to Dirt in 2010.  Those "other" bands include Shore 2 Pleaze, The Jersey Shades, 9 South, Kindred, Mo' Rock, and a few I can't remember. In her spare time she collects small children, makes lip balm and sings jingles for Sirius Satellite Radio's "70s on 7" channel.
Andy Sonatore - Guitar, vocals
Andy comes from a musical family (the Osmonds, I believe) and has been in his other band Swoop for a score or more years.  He once won a Howard Stern song parody contest but blew the prize money hiring Van Halen to play his birthday party.  He joined Dirt in September 2008 against his lawyer's advice.

Sadly, Andy passed away on September 28, 2011.  We miss him.
Bruce Galbraith - Guitar, vocals
An original Dirt member, Bruce moved to New Jersey from Long Island 25 years ago, but still hasn't received his green card. His previous bands include Sugarfoot, The Bastardos (with Steve), No Clue, the Hillcrest Gang and the Cub Scouts Marching Kazoo Band. He teaches guitar on the side (or sometimes he stands). Some of his students have been Les Paul and Buddy Holly. He never misses a gig (because he has the PA).
John MacDonald - Bass
An original Dirt member, John played guitar for 13 years before taking up bass, but nobody cared. He's played in the Eryn Shewell Band, Christine Martucci Band and Under New Ownership (with Steve). His hobbies include moving, wasting time, teaching Rhea to play four notes on bass, and putting dumb stuff on this website.
Steve Gadless - Drums, vocals
Steve has been in the bands Collision, The Bastardos (where he met Bruce), a Billy Joel cover band (without Billy Joel) and Under New Ownership (with John). His hobbies include collecting frequent flyer miles, testing airline food and watching Southpark marathons. Steve has been filling in on drums since December 1998.
