They can do acoustic (France, Music) and hard punk (Horrorshow maybe, Up The Bracket). Not many other bands can manage that perfect balance on an album as they do...... they're the best and always will be :nice:

Doherty's band postpones tour dates to help him recover from addiction

dohertyPA010606_228x296.jpgRecovery: Pete Doherty's band, Babyshambles, has postponed some tour dates

 

 

 

Troubled singer Pete Doherty's band Babyshambles has been forced to postpone their UK tour to give the singer more time to recover from drug rehab treatment, his record company said today.

Babyshambles postponed their five remaining dates to allow their front man's "excellent" efforts at overcoming his addiction to continue, said an EMI spokesman.

Doherty has had a number of drug related court appearances this year and last month was receiving drug rehab treatment at the Priory clinic.

Today's announcement comes after the singer reportedly had a "bust-up" with his supermodel girlfriend Kate Moss in the early hours of yesterday after a Babyshambles gig in London.

The couple were later pictured driving away together from her home but by the evening the band's concert in Liverpool had been cancelled.

A further four successive dates from tonight - Glasgow, Nottingham, Manchester and Newcastle - have also been postponed.

An EMI spokesman said: "Babyshambles have made the decision to postpone the remaining five dates of their current UK tour.

"It has become clear that Peter embarked on this arduous and high profile tour too soon after his discharge and still needs time to recover from his extensive rehab treatment.

"Peter asks that he be given the time and space to continue with his excellent effort to recover.

"The band apologises to fans but hope that they will understand the importance of Peter being able to best continue his good progress in recovering from addiction.

"The dates will be rearranged for as soon as possible and all tickets will remain valid."

Last month Doherty, in court on drugs charges, avoided jail after a judge said she was "impressed" with his attempts to beat his addiction.

The singer had pleaded guilty to five counts on possessing heroin, cocaine - of which some was crack cocaine - and cannabis.

But he was allowed to continue his drug treatment and told he would be sentenced in December.

I know! Oh my god. It's stunning live. I remember when they came out and played it I just stood there like :stunned: Then felt about to cry. It was really sweet cuz Annalisa was there, who was watching him all adoringly. :nice:

:stunned:

 

The played it?

Fucking hell, you lucky girl!

I'm having a girlcrush on Annalisa, she's stunning. Cause I've never said that before :laugh3: No, but really, Carl is lucky to have her. There's a lovely picture of them in 'Bound together' :nice:

Yeaaah! Oh my god I died when I saw it on the setlist. Funny, though, BURMA's not on the setlist I stole..... huh.

 

 

She's.... guh. She's really like the female equivalent to Carl, they're perfect together.

And they played B.U.R.M.A?

 

*nods*

How do Peter and Carl do it? Kate, Annalisa.. yeah.

It's really off..

I can't say I'm surprised. Same thing happened last year.. isn't it funny that it's excatly a year ago I was this excited, how about next year?! :cry:

 

*thinks about the good of the band and peter*

 

but still:

FUCK.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...... well I think I'll start a new convo, maybe.

 

 

Carl v. Peter

 

 

Who's voice and why? (it can be overall, or just at the moment ;) )

 

 

 

I could never choose overall. I absolutely love both of their voices. I have to admit that right now I'm having a major crush on Carlos' though, especially at the begining of 'The Good Old Days'. But then when Pete kicks in... his voice is just so honest. It's not trying to be beautiful (neither is Carl's, but yeah)... it's not trying to be ANYTHING. He just sings from his heart and gut. I could never choose between them. Together they're just perfect.

 

 

And I must say, Carl's voice in BURMA is just......... oooooof. "Be upstairs ready my angeeeeel" oh my god! pure sex.

 

 

 

OMG the DPT diary just finished downloading! Watching now! :D

THERESE.

 

 

 

 

 

THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING.

 

 

 

 

 

 

OH MY GOD I LOVE ANTHONY AND DIDZ AND CARL AND LMFAO LMFAO GARY LOVES TO DANCE OMG MY HERO.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am so exploding with love for them. Like........ I love them SO. MUCH.

I am agreeing 100%. That's just one of those things that is impossible to choose between. I love that Carl's voice is so deep and manly but Peter's voice is equally as amazing.. I love them both. To much.

 

But how about.. Drew vs Didz? (voice I mean)

 

I don't know if I could choose that one either cause the beginning of 'The enemy', seriously, I don't wanna know how many times I've played that! It just blows me away every time. And then when Carl comes in with his cooky (I almost wrote cocky :laugh3:) voice.. God, musicalorgasm.

But Drew's voice.. Ribtickling is one of my favesong at the moment, I play it on repeat on the way to school, it just makes me so calm and his voice is so beautiful and pure and.. God.

Choosing is fucking hard.

THERESE.

I KNOW!

 

 

SERIOUSLY, HOW MANY TIME DON'T YOU NEED TO PAUSE JUST CAUSE YOU'RE REALLY LYING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING?!

 

 

DPT ARE FOOKING HILLARIOUS!

 

 

 

 

 

(I love Stan even more after seeing it,

if it's possible :laugh3:)

AHAHA. OMG. POOR CARLOS CAN'T HANDLE THE COLD WATER. or is it poor LITTLE CARLOS can't handle it?

 

 

omg that was bad :laugh4: I'm in no way insinuating Carl has a teeny penis!!!!!! Oh dear. :uhoh:

 

 

Anyways, just uploaded the Diaries to youtube for anybody who maybe doesn't want to download it to their computer, but wants to watch! :D I'll put the link up soon, whenever YouTube stops being a bastard and finishes it!

ooooooooooooooh the enemy................... :stunned: my god. beautiful. LMFAO I read that as cocky, and yeah Carl's voice is pretty damn cocky sometimes! :heart: haha

 

 

 

oh my lord though... drew...... didz..... we should just have one big MUSICAL orgy with them.

 

 

 

I wish shambles and dpt would record together.... that'd be a ton of instruments on one record but fuuuuck man!

Just imagine Drew and Didz fighting on stage to do the bassline (menatl fic :dead:) Yeah.. that would be hot! No seriously, that'd be like.. amazing.

 

How about Didz and his balls.. seriously :laugh3: They are the funniest band (with was), I don't think I've seen one interview without laughing my ass off..

 

Weehu, much appreciated! :dance:

 

And I've decided, good thing about Babyshambles not coming here; I can buy the flippin' DVD! :D :dance:

You're welcome!

 

 

 

Hmmm, DVD, so......... when is this released all over the place (aka: not here :laugh4: )

http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=564320

16th this month.. I always buy from HMV etc when it comes to these things..

The shipping is only £1 and that ain't so bad :wink:

 

Btw, I have just realised how amazing 'Wondering' really is! Seriously..I love it.

 

And so we strolled on all bangered and confused

At first it wasn’t pretty but we soon undid that rouse so

 

Now we got something in many other ways

All the boys together and a knees up on the way

 

Probablly my favorite DPT-lyrics line yet :heart:

I've never seen any photos of Radiohead "off their heads" in public' date=' so you can't compare the two.;)[/quote']

Actually, I don't think she was trying to compare both bands in any sort of way. She was trying to show you what you did about Peter's music, which was judging based on stereotypes or some fucking article, it's the same thing. If you're gonna judge the music, then first give it a listen (and no, a couple of songs is never enough), and then come up with a built opinion of your own. Then, maybe, you'll be respected as deserved.

It isn't a "generalisation" to say that Pete is a hopeless junkie' date=' because the evidence speaks for itself.;)[/quote']

Oh and just one more thing about this. I don't think hopeless it the right term in here. But again, if you actually bothered listening to his stuff before making a judgment, you'll know that.

Nah, Mark's the hopeless one :P (and he seems to really be the only one amused by his own thread, oh well).

 

 

 

 

ANYHOO.

 

 

 

 

yay.

 

 

 

I have nothing to add lmfao other than I think DPT is my band of the day! :D

I've heard some other songs as well which quite frankly sent me to sleep!!

I can't stand Pete's whiny voice, for a start.;)

It's acceptable if you don't like his music. There's a lot of stuff I don't like; hey, you can't like every single band that's out there cause, to be honest, there's not even enough time to check them all out.

 

 

 

Sooo yeah, I'll stop rambling and I'll stand out for this thread. I'm building a fucking fort if that's needed but we don't really need you in here. Thanks.

Love the song lyrics in your profile, Andy. I was just blasting that this morning and obsessing over that part!
