Joe Keithley (Shithead) is the leader of hard-core punk band DOA and has been since the late 70's. In 2008 The Vancouver Sun named Joe one of BC's most influential people – of all time! DOA played for benefits, rallies, protests, and anything with the word environment in it. Joe and DOA still tour. 20 dates all across Canada in June and July of this year. So it should come as no surprise that Joe is now Burnaby City Councilor Joe Keithley. It took him years to get voters' attention in Burnaby but now he's no long shot, he's running for re-election. This month. There's a documentary film crew following him around..hoping to figure out how he finds the balance between being an angry rocker and a well-spoken politician. One of the people is Beto O'Rourke – in Texas. Joe's s talking about affordable housing, human rights, Quality child care, helping the most vulnerable, and assisting seniors and the homeless. He's just an all round great guy..and scary good on stage as well. The Burnaby Election is October 15th I believe. If you can donate or support Joe's fight...Please contact him at www.Suddendeath.com joe@suddendeath.com @joe.keithley
Guest is a long time friend Joe Keithley (also known by his D.O.A hardcore punk stage name Joe Shithead) One of the very few punk artists who didn't bring their stage characters into their real world. Joe on stage was wild, pissed off, and very much in your face. Off stage, he was just a great guy from Burnaby. A regular Joe. Joe founded D.O.A Founded Sudden Death Records Rock Against Racism Harmony for all – gathering used instruments for Burnaby residents who don't have access to them. D.O.A is celebrating the 40th anniversary of their LP Hardcore 81 And Director Scott Crawford is shooting a documentary on Joe and DOA called Something Better Change (named after DOA's first album) He's already shot and released Creem: America's only rock and roll magazine and Salad Days. Both were outstanding. Many of Joe's former bandmates are long gone but he's continued to grow and learn to such an extent that he's now a twice-elected Burnaby City Councillor and Joe's just gearing up for another run for office. Knocking on doors is his specialty. I think he mentions 13,000 during one campaign. Here's the best part – he's still making music with DOA..getting in a tour of Ontario, Quebec, and BC's interior before the election. To quote Dan Aykroyd “ is it a floor wax or a shampoo” Can a guy be a hard-core punker and a politician??? Yes.. yes you can. If you're Joe Keithley.
