On Wednesday, March 3rd Joey Keithley's new autobiography I, Shithead: A Life in Punk will be released in the US by Arsenal Pulp Press. The book is already a national best-seller in Canada (Amazon.ca named it one of the top 25 nonfiction books of 2003). The D.O.A. singer/songwriter/vocalist/guitarist is currently considering writing a second book, a "survival guide to our modern age and a primer on social activism" and is interested in recording a solo album and a reggae-oriented album.
Keithley is headed out on tour this March for a string of spoken word appearances in support of his book. D.O.A. are also heading to hit the road soon in support of their greatest hits album War And Peace on Sudden Death Records. Tour dates are scheduled for the West Coast, with East Coast dates forthcoming.
