   About Pansy Division
We are a queer band from San Francisco. We've been around since the early 90s and made a bunch of records and done a bunch of tours. We have met some really cool people and some shitbirds. We've played with some amazing bands and some horrible ones too. We like music, both listening to and making... We have a website www.pansydivision.com (the audio page has tons of downloads). We are on Alternative Tentacles Records and they are nice folks.

2009 has been our most active year in 6 years! Our new album, titled That's So Gay, was released in late March 2009. It was be preceded by the 7" single "Average Men," which features a non-album B-side, a cover of Green Day's "Coming Clean." The documentary film about us, Pansy Division: Life In A Gay Rock Band, came out on DVD around the same time. Also, Jon's book about his Pansy Division experiences, called Deflowered: My Life in Pansy Division, was issued by Cleis Press on March 1, 2009. It covers the history of the band, full of anecdotes and stories from over the years.

It is a touring year for PD! Jon's book tour lasted from mid-March to the end of May, hitting 46 cities! Expect a Pansy Division west coast tour in mid-September 2009 (we did 11 east coast/midwest shows in June).

Including our new album, we have released 9 albums (including our Best Of, "The Essential Pansy Division") and a bunch of singles. We used to tour a lot, but jobs, school, and life in general prevent that now. Now we just play the occasional show, though short tours may occur once in a great while. Band members are Jon Ginoli, Chris Freeman, and Luis Illades, with Joel Reader, bassist for The Fatal Flaw and The Avengers (and formerly of Mr. T Experience) currently in the lead guitar role. He also occupies the token hetero role.

We've got two songs from our new album posted on our page, enjoy!

How did you manage to make fans out of us when we were already fans? You were the sweetest, most modest, and generous people we've met. Tell Jesse and company that Chicago wants you back. ps: you made my mom feel like a teenager (at least in spirit, her girl parts are hopeless at this point). pps: Saw the Hangover yesterday, and yeah, all the 'fag' jokes fell flat. What a sloppy piece of glorious hilarity.

STOP Same Sex Abuse

About this page:
I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D
