He's a great act to see live but sadly there's no way John Otway would ever be a rock superstar. However he does know how to get things going with slightly off the wall projects, mainly aimed at self promotion. Of which this autobiography is one. But it's still good fun and shows a sense of self-awareness which he exploits by the slightly annoying use of a third person narrative. Detached irony overload maybe?
