The Libertines frontman Pete Doherty has never been known as all that reliable a source of Libertines news, and his proclamation that Jack White wants to produce his band's next album was definitely news to Jack White.
In preparation for their big comeback show at London's Hyde Park next week, the Libertines played an extra-long set at Glasgow Barrowlands Saturday night.
Hot on the heels of the upcoming Libertines reunion, singer Pete Doherty has announced three solo performances in Nottingham, Oxford and Bristol ahead of the scheduled full-band shows.
Pete Doherty, erstwhile co-leader of the Libertines, said he's accepted an offer to get back together with the rest of the band to play a show at Hyde Park.
