The past 18 months have been productive for Foo Fighters vocalist-guitarist Dave Grohl: After directing a documentary, “What Drives Us,” dropping a new album, “Medicine at Midnight,” and heading out for an arena tour, Grohl is set to publish his first book, “The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music,” on Oct. 5.

He also announced a limited run of intimate shows to see and hear him bring his new book to life. He’ll be stopping by The Ford in Los Angeles for two nights, Oct. 12-13. Tickets are on sale now at theford.com. Each ticket purchase includes a copy of “The Storyteller.” Masks and either proof of vaccination or a recent negative COVID-19 test (within 48-hours of the event) are required to attend.

The book is a collection of memories from his formative years growing up in the DC punk rock scene to fronting one of the biggest rock bands in the world straight out of the San Fernando Valley.
