8/16 at the Black Cat.. woohoo!
This has just made my week!
Now will they really show? Hey… Number 300 for me! It's the greatest day of my year and half tenure.
piss man. 8/16!!! I am going to be in the homeland seeing Radiohead from the Orchestra Pit….damnit. maybe I'll stay for the Libertines. haha, jk. should be fun though, they were 3 sheets to the wind at Coachella. I call them "wanker rock"
I will check out the show out of curiousity. So is Pete definitely out of the band, then?

What I read on their message board made it seem like he was in rehab. The people on that site claimed to have a picture of him shooting up and it sounded like the picture is periodically posted, why people would want to see that, I dont know.
A guy I know spent some time with the 'Tines earlier this year and said the lead guy (sorry, don't know his name) has some serious pharmaceutical issues – way above and beyond your normal rock-star drug use. So if you want a good show on 8-16, bring him some crack. Seriously.

Here is a site with a bunch of Libertines demos:

The best part of the demos is Adam Green doing What a Waster.
British Sea Power have been added as the opener

Oh, cool! I've heard they put on a great live show.

I have mixed feelings about their music but love the song Spirit Of St. Louis. In fact, I like their singles much better than their album.

That's fantastic! I want to see them more than the Libertines! That made my rather rough day so much brighter.
