About feckin time:)
Gone for 14 weeks, should be longer after the amount of times that the waster has been in court and dodged prison. He should have gone to prison years ago, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

Shame really, I quite enjoy Pete dodging the prison bullet and the subsequent tabloid hysteria we get so frequently
Someone to be caught with heroine, crack, ketamine and cannabis in Kensington? Never thought I'd see it in my lifetime to be honest.
As a fellow Ranger my heart goes out* to Mr. Doherty. Hopefully he'll be back out on the terraces soon. :)
*He may need that heart soon enough I'd say. :D
Its not his first stint in prison doesnt come as any surprise all though not having read a tabloid in years ive no idea what he is up to :D
"Bye bye baby, you're a shambles - Pete's mum cries as Doherty leaves Liberty-nes."
What's this celebrity junkie Pete Doherty got to do with a Music Forum? :confused:
He's a very talented songwriter, singer and musician just has a major drug problem.
Jail will be the worst place for him with the reports of how widely drugs are available inside, may send him back to square one in kicking his habit.
i dunno i think that his music is utter ****e, past and present. reckon if he wasnt the media magnate for his snorting escapades his cds would be lining students gaffs as ashtrays long ago.
Never heard one of his songs. He any good? ;)
People either love or hate him
Listen here
Singing live on the Jonathan Ross show
At least Doherty brings some musical talent to the table lads, furthermore when have rock stars not produced mass hysteria in the press? We could easily have said the same about Lennon, Reed, Bowie etc. back in the day as we are saying about Doherty now. I'm not saying he's anywhere near as talented as those three men, but they all produced unnecessary tabloid hysteria at one stage or another dur to drug intake .
Basically who else has this decade produced that fits the rock mould beside Doherty?
He isnt the best guitar player or the best singer but he is a great song writer and thats the point thats why he is so successfull. Where as Gareth Gates is a great singer but a rubbish song writter thats the difference.
I like his music dont really follow his antics in the press but shock horror a rock star on drugs. What people forget is he was all ready very successfull before he ever started taking drugs he isnt just famous for being a junkie or dating kate moss. In fact its probably cost him lots of fans as people got sick of him not showing up for gigs etc all the time . his songs have deffinetly gone down hill but are still better than most around now.
If it wasnt for the libertines all the bands that copied them wouldnt have made it the Kooks the fratellies etc etc .
Ive seen Baby shambles a few times once in the height of his drug taking and i have to admit i went not knowing any of the songs well as they had nothing released all i had was demo's and its still the best gig ive been to blew everyone else ive seen away. topped
the pixies
chilli peppers
bob dylan
the who
go team
kings of leon
flaming lips
the strokes
etc etc .
Looking foward to this solo album see what its like.
I have to admit to hearing a recent single release by Babyshambles, and without knowing who it was, thinking it was excellent.
Thats just that live show compared to them live im not saying he is better than Dylan ! but he is better than the peppers
Start with the Libertines 2nd album called the libertines this was recorded just as he started acting up they kicked him out of the band , brought him back recorded this album then kicked him out again. When you listen to it you ll understand why i told you that. Its the best stuff him and Barret ever did and an easier starting point than up the bracket.Or any of the babyshambles stuff.
some very clever lines like "her old man, he doesnt like blacks or queers, but he's proud we beat the nazi's...... how queer !"
They pretty much knew the band and their friendship was done for and it shows in the songs like what became of the likely lads and music when the lights go out.
Thanks for the tips. Seems like your upsetting a few people here though... Ah well, live and let live.. Again, I don't give two, s..ts about what the guy does in his life. Just the music I'm intrested in.. Only that. If he was my neighbour, and doing drugs and making trouble on my doorstep, maybe then I'd care. But he isn't, and I don't.. He's just a bloke lads... Just a bloke..
Coldplay, so so... A few decent songs here and there. Not one of my favourites..
Anytime i talk about him that line about NME gets thrown at me ive never read it nor any of the other music mags i dont care what musicians think or have to say its all ******.I like someone that writes a song that makes sense rather than just putting words that rhyme to a tune like coldplay do.
