nearly a libertine
while pete 'i love the sun newspaper' doherty cannot seem to stay out of the news for all the wrong reasons the other front man from the truly amazing libertines - carl barat - has been getting on with business of making music. and it is damn fine music at that.
i am still gutted that i never got a chance to see the libertines in their shambolic heights, but the show that carl's new band (dirty pretty things) put on last night at the forum at least gave me an indication of what could have been.
the show was absolute rock n roll, with DPT belting out their new tracks along with some libertine's classics thrown in. 'i get along' brought the place down.
amazing gig - will see if Carlos and the boys can continue - but i think that there is nothing that will be able to replace pete at his best...

Mate i'm gutted!
I had a ticket for my use for this gig, but the journey from Brighton to north London was long and my lazy bones decided to wave good bye to the gig and rejoice in my duvet heaven - bummer!!!
Good work on the site man,
Hope to catch up soon :)
Peace and happiness to one and all...
