“I love how easy Newski makes it to plow through the dark stuff with some well placed humor and grit.” -Stelth Ulvang (of the Lumineers)
“When I’m on the road doing comedy, half my job is anxiety. Brett’s book is a great tool for how to use that energy. And the best part is, when I’m too lazy to read, I can just look at the pictures.” -Charlie Berens, Manitowoc Minute

In Piss In the Wind, his first volume of tour journals, Brett Newski perfectly captures the crusty adventures of nomad life, eking out a living in a less-than-glorious fashion as he plays DIY concerts across Asia, South Africa, and America. He battles through waning mental health, decrepit infrastructure, shady drifters, corrupt concert promoters, and shameless criminal enterprises along the way. None of the gritty details are left unsaid in these intensely personal, funny, and vulnerable journals.
