Description

Joey Keithley was the founder of the legendary punk pioneers D.O.A., who spread counter-culture around the world, influenced such as bands as Red Hot Chilli Peppers, toured with all the great names of punk and were the subject of two tribute albums. Twenty five years on and they are still going strong with sales of more than 500,000 copies of their eleven albums under their belt. This is the story of the band from its conception - a story of riots, drinking, travelling, playing and conquering all manner of obstacles through sheer will and a visionary determination.
