The mod icon first mentioned the idea of writing a memoir back in 2009. Almost ten years later, the memoir is finally on its way.

A post on The Who’s official Facebook page had revealed that the title of the memoir will be “Thanks A Lot Mr Kibblewhite: My Story.” The book will take readers through the star’s 50-year career with The Who and will offer a glimpse into the life of a rock ‘n’ roll star living in Britain back in the ’60s.

Daltrey previously said in a statement: “I’ve always resisted the urge to ‘do the memoir’ but now, finally, I feel I’ve enough perspective. When you’ve spent more than half a century at the epicenter of a band like The Who, perspective can be a problem. Everything happened in the moment. One minute, I’m on the factory floor in Shepherd’s Bush, the next, I’m headlining Woodstock.”

He added: “It’s taken three years to unpick the events of my life, to remember who did what when and why, to separate the myths from the reality, to unravel what really happened at the Holiday Inn on Keith Moon’s 21st birthday.”

“I hope the result is more than just another autobiography. I’ve been lucky enough to live in interesting times. I’ve witnessed society, music and culture change beyond recognition. That I’m still here to tell my tale when so many others around me didn’t make it is nothing short of a miracle.”

Thanks A Lot Mr Kibblewhite: My Story will be released on October 18th.

“I’ve always resisted the urge to ‘do the memoir,'” said Daltrey in a statement, “but now, finally, I feel I’ve enough perspective. When you’ve spent more than half a century at the epicenter of a band like The Who, perspective can be a problem. Everything happened in the moment. One minute, I’m on the factory floor in Shepherd’s Bush, the next, I’m headlining Woodstock.”

Daltrey first mentioned that he is preparing his memoir in 2016, but stated that he will only release it if it turns out to be a good book, wishing to give his fans a good read. It looks like he managed to do so and that we are in for a treat.

“It’s taken three years to unpack the events of my life, to remember who did what when and why, to separate the myths from the reality, to unravel what really happened at the Holiday Inn on Keith Moon’s 21st birthday,” he said. “I hope the result is more than just another autobiography. I’ve been lucky enough to live in interesting times. I’ve witnessed society, music and culture change beyond recognition. That I’m still here to tell my tale when so many others around me didn’t make it is nothing short of a miracle.”

After the 2017 edition of The Who tour ended recently, Roger Daltrey will now embark on a solo tour where he will deliver a mix of songs from his eight solo albums and The Who hits. He also reportedly works on his first solo album since 1992’s Rocks in the Head.
