I never got a ticket. But I recieved an e-mail today saying I could now order tickets because some total dipshits didn't order theirs (were they on drugs?!) but they must have sold out pretty damn fast. I'm tempted to get tickets for Carl's tour but his music might be crap (though I doubt it) and it will all be for nothing.

What I dodn't understand though, is why not have Libs headline R+L? I mean, if it were me going, and I'd just seen The Libertines, then had to watch Arcade Fire, it'd be a bit, well, you know. But, I suppose Arcade Fire have more songs and probably more fans.

As a massive (read: obsessed) Libs fan, I was more than happy with Arcade Fire's headline performance, it was simply stunning.

I'm SO GLAD I saw the Libs though. I've also got tickets to Carl's solo gig at The Scala at the end of October.

At 28 I thought i'd have grown out of my Libs mania by now. Evidently not I just love them so much!

Thought they were fantastic at Reading, Pete looked remarkably lucid. It was like they'd never been away.

My favourite band ever, has led me to my obsession over 'Shambles which can't be bad. I can't put into words how much they mean. Seeing them finally get the respect they deserve and have their hits treated in the way they deserve at R&L, was such a great feeling.

Why bother posting in a Libertines appreciation thread if you don't like them ? and why are you angry ?

I've watched their full set, and I swear to god I nearly cried. They were fantastic, and was just so lovely to see them all back together and seeing Pete looking healthy.

Also, don't know if anyone's heard, but Carlos is going to be a daddy

Wasn't Carl's girlfriend the pregnant lady at the back of the stage filming them? She's gorgeous!

The set was brilliant, wish I had seen it live...the whole exchange of Carl grabing Pete's face, telling him he loved him and ripping his shirt in an embrace was heart-warming. It's great to see that despite all the water under the bridge the brilliant chemisty between the two of them has not gone away. It was also great to see Pete looking so healthy...him cracking up during I Get Along was the happiest I've ever seen him.

I just hope Pete doesnt forget about Babyshambles though....

Agreed. I cried. It was so lovely to see.

Does anyone think they'll record new material?

Carl is releasing a solo album, don't know about The Libertines. I definatley think they'll do a little UK tour next year though.

Yeah, I have tickets for Carl's solo gig in October. It's the London date, so I'm hoping Pete will make a cameo appearance! Looking forward to Carl's album on Oct 4th.

I definitely think they'll do a small Libs tour, i hope so anyway. there has been talk of new material, but it just depends on their other commitments.....fingers crossed, eh?

His girlfriend is stupidly gorgeous. He's bagged a gooden there. Mind you, so has she.....

I think I'd be willing to forego any new Babyshambles in favour of a permanent Libs reunion. Well, for the time being, anyway.

Anyone head Run With The Boys yet? I wasn't too sure at first, but I like it now

The artwork is atrocious though. He ought to be bloody ashamed, it's embarrasing!

I agree about the artwork, definitely not right for him! I'm warming to it though

I just had a quick Facebook stalk of Edie Langley I'm so jealous. She's gorgeous AND shagging Carl Barat.

Some people have it all.

it's nice he's settled down though. They can finally make a baby Libertines band now. Not sure how it'd turn out though.....

True, true...

Maybe Pete is saving himself for me. I would definitely partake in the making of mini-Libertines. It would be rude of me not to!

Pete's saving himself for you?! Damn.

Fine, I'll settle for John. He's good enough for me. Even though he's married. But, it'll all work out somehow.

Now, who wants Gary?.....

Gary's married with kids isn't he? He's definitely got at least one child!

Ah, f**k it. I'll settle for a bloody lookalike. Pete or Carl preferably, but I'm not fussy

Apply within.

In all honesty I'd rather a new Babyshambles album...it would be a great disappointment to me personally if the new album was shelved simply so Pete can do more stuff with the Libertines. Im happy for new Libertines material and a full reunion, just so long as its after the Babyshambles album has been released, even if that has to be Babyshambles last hurrah. After all the loyalty Drew and Mik (and of couse Adam) have shown Pete over the years I think that is the least they deserve.

As for Carl's solo stuff...I'm really, really trying but I just can't bring myself to like that song! I'm hoping it will either grow on me or thats just a bad lead single. As for the artwork... I think I'll have to buy that online because I'd be embarrased to take to a counter in a shop! Then when it arrives I'll put it face down! Carl, you're gorgeous but why that image...I can understand to symbolism of it but that doesnt forgive the fact its a bloody awful album cover!

And you lot can fight over the Libertines all you want...I'm taking Drew!

Ahhhhh, I keep watching Carl kissing Pete on Youtube.

I'm so sad.

Maybe I'm getting cynical but I can't help feeling that Carl finally agreed to do the Libertines dates as handy pre-publicity for his upcoming solo album and autobiography.
Judging from the first track I've heard he's going to need it.

(Couldn't edit so had to quote myself)

Just to say, I'm not a hater, I'm just more of a Pete fan. I think he's more authentic, and naturally talented.
I don't dislike Carl though

The laws of nature should become obsolete just so Carl and Pete could reproduce.
