Babyshambles tickets in Sala Apolo at 22.30, Tuesday December 19

Pete Doherty is the guy who was kicked out of The Libertines for failing to do anything about his drug problem and is the favourite of the British tabloid press for his fling with Kate Moss, and his constant attraction of controversy wherever he goes. The guy is a complete and utter knobend and makes Oasis seem like saints in comparison. They have a habit of not turning up for gigs, which can often end in drunken chaos. There can’t be many illegal substances Doherty hasn’t dabbled in, and he was banned from Easyjet for life when travelling for the Primavera Sound in Barcelona this summer after wreaking havoc on the plane and leaving used syringes in the bog. Yet despite being named Worst Live Act of the year, the fans love him, and the band have had big hits in the UK, including the quaintly titled Fuck Forever, which made number 4!
