Hey! Middle class kids who dream of puking into mop buckets in bedsits! Start tapping mummy and daddy up for their credit cards now because The Libertines are playing a warm-up show in London, so you can get up close and personal with each and every one of Pete Doherty’s weeping sores!
As well you chumps know, the travelling gaggle of nicotine stained Wotsit fingers will play at the? Reading And Leeds festivals, but they want to get a bit of practise in first at a warm-up show at London’s HMV Forum on August 25th.
Of course, they’ll pull the whole thing off like they’ve never touched a guitar before because that’s their schtick. ‘My hands are so disaffected that they can’t be bothered forming proper chords!‘
Anyway, if you want to get showered in pus from popping cysts, then you’ll need to get tickets from some ballot which will be offered to those who sign up to thelibertines.com.
Fans of 6th form poetry can register for the chance to buy up to two tickets each until 6pm on Friday 13th. You can then fill forums with articles about how Pete Doherty won a poetry competition before he had pubes and that he’s got a National Record of Achievement brimming with GCSEs.
They play the Leeds Festival on the Friday 27th and Reading Festival on Saturday 28th.

The person who wrote this is an asshole that slags off people they don’t know. And to insult middle class kids is just daft. People can’t choose the family they are born into. If they have money or a good home does not make them bad people. Working class people can just be as bad. Everyone is different. You find good and bad people in all walks of like. Sorry Mof but you look a bit silly writing this rubbish. If you don’t like the lib’s music than that is up to you but next time you write an article like this try and use your brain. You sound like you write for The Sun or some fiction prone rag like that. What a prat and it looks bad for this site.
