Barat on Doherty (could he have an album out, d'ya think?)
Carl Barat has told The Scotsman that the chances of he and former bandmate Pete Doherty appearing on stage together aren't quite slimmer than a Pepperami.
The former Libertine turned Dirty Pretty Things singer told the 'paper: "By the very nature of my and Pete's relationship, we could be back on stage before you know it."
Dirty Pretty Things, of course, have an album out today. If the single's owt to go by, it's probably not all that interesting, hence articles like this to plug its existence.
Regarding his relationship with Pete, Barat added:
"I like to think I left it on ice. We're obviously busy with other things, but I like it when I see Pete as long as it's not really public."
He probably said something about Waterloo To Anywhere, too. I saw 'em, Dirty Pretty Things, on The Album Chart Show last night. Shite they were, but they were like Radiohead playing for eight people in a shed compared to the tragedy that was The Pipettes in full live flow... ergh. Great singles, girls, but you've all the live (televisual) appeal of sucking off a goat.

What a spiteful article
I suppose DiS needs passionate writing... or something.
I think the DPT single is ok, a 6/10 effort. I think the pipettes are fun.
so nerrrrrr
nah
i agree with everything that was said in that article.
word.
I'd pay
to see the Pipettes sucking off a goat
JezCC
Cmon jezz, you know mike divers sharp wit, and dry as helll humour arent spiteful....
...its ignorance.
yeah DPT do suck, well fro what i saw on jonathon ross about 2 weeks ago, and he one a BAFTA!
Ignorance
WON a BAFTA
What time is that chart show on?
I keep meaning to watch it, but am ending up in bed at 9 o clock recently due to long days revising. I love the Pippettes, I want to be one. The thought of sucking off a goat is quite revolting though. urgh.
hmm....
those two should kiss and make and perhaps together they could both start making good music again, cause apart they are a bit wank (although id take DPT of that crack heads 'shambles any day)
sleep is more productive,
and less irritating. that presenter makes me want to kick my own face off.
lol
great article!
shit
my english is so bad... 'one a BAFTA' .
why the caps?
The Pipettes are fit.
But RUBBISH.
You need a really good voice to
get away with the 60s girl pop thing and the blonde that was meant to carry the first song was so badly out of tune it was painful. I think the one with the glasses carries that band and should go solo now.
DPT - Yeah they're very Libertines outtakes aren't they and they don't seem that comfortable together. I notice Barat hasn't been doing many interviews letting Hammond take them instead as if they expect the Pete subject to dominate their press coverage. If they'd made a good album that wouldn't happen so much. All the reviews I've seen have called WTA average. I think this single is their only half decent song even though it's derivative and lacks real spirit. It's still better than the others they've previewed.
I actually love the one with glasses
but not so much for her singing... phwoar etc.
Yeah
you big biased libertine not-liker. DPT are great live. Crap journalism.
GAY
she has what
Americans call chutzpah. She seemed like she was overjoyed to be on tv.
How can anyone hate Joe Mace, he's like wallpaper. I actually think Steve Jones is the most annoying C/T 4 person at the moment. Miquita seems like a fish out of water and Alex Zane is great but Alexa just makes popworld even more MTV than it already looks.
is that her name?
I had no idea.
Zane ain't so bad actually.
I really don't get how you can
run a site when you write the articles so spitefully and biased?
Yes you deliver the news, but its always got to have your witty little twist on how crap you think the band is.
Its either 'Some dick from some crappy band said their new album's out soon. Do I care?' or 'OMGOMG, THE BEST BAND of the last FIVE YEARS are TOURING!!!'.
Its horrible reading, seriously.
If Pete and Carl made a stage return together, it'd be absolutely ace.
OMG
does this mean the libertines are getting back together or have i misread?
ehh hem
well fuckin said, its true they seem to hate every band
