First who gives a fuck!

trevor_the_exploder (April 13, 2007)

me. the libertines are/were awesome.

Mr_Streetcore (April 14, 2007)

agreed

Someone (April 13, 2007)

yawn

ChokingVictim (April 13, 2007)

A Libertines reunion would be the best thing to happen musically this year.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

heroin addicts are stoked.

Ollywood (April 13, 2007)

I recently found a box of Cds which I haven't listened to since high school. I forgot how amazing Ten Foot Pole's "Insider" is, I've been listening to it for a week straight now and I must say it is one of my favorite albums.

GlassPipeMurder (April 14, 2007)

'tis an awesome album indeed. that one and Subliminable Messages are my favorite.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

now if pete doherty had his own reality tv show i would be stoked.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

yes!! great idea!

ThomPunkAheaddotcom (April 13, 2007)

Pete Doherty should be locked up, fucking dickhead.

punkbytheounce (April 13, 2007)

Fucking seconded.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

lets go mets

Someone (April 13, 2007)

I would really like Pete Doherty to just die already.

Rob.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

nothings as fabulous as being constipated and not shitting for three days

Someone (April 13, 2007)

here's a few reasons why pete doherty is the man

1 - he attacked a reporter with his guitar

2 - he shot his own blood from a needle at a reporter

3 - he worked as a male prostitute for drugs

4 - he ruined kate moss

5 - he's not pete wentz

Dakotacore (April 13, 2007)

Those first four reasons don't so much make him the man as they make him a irresponsible social retard with little regard for human decency. Fuck this wanker.

FuckYouOiOiOi (April 13, 2007)

so....hes punk as fuck? i don't know much about this guy but he seems pretty gnarly.

Someone (April 14, 2007)

an...an

Someone (April 13, 2007)

mickey avalon and dee dee ramone both did stints as male prostitutes for drugs, doesn't make them the man either ( i have a lot of respect for what dee dee did for music but he also was a woman beater)

Someone (April 14, 2007)

it's okay when said woman was a heroin addict who stabbed him

givemeamuseumandillfillit (April 13, 2007)

You know, the stunt he pulled a month back blows all of that away.

punkbytheounce (April 13, 2007)

I want to laugh, but I hate Pete Doherty so much it ruined it for me.

ThomPunkAheaddotcom (April 13, 2007)

You forgot that he injected a passed out (may have been asleep, although doubt it) female fan at his house with heroin also.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

I had a nightmare once that Pete Doherty ran after me with a syringe full of heroin in some dodgy back lane. And my legs weren't working properly, becuase that sometimes happens in dreams.

MySafetysHarvard (April 13, 2007)

so he's not pete wentz... i guess he seems like a decent enough guy then.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

wow, and i thought punk rockers weren't supposed to be so uptight?

i was kidding, pete doherty isn't the man. it was a fucking joke you nerds!

he's still cooler than pete wentz though

givemeamuseumandillfillit (April 13, 2007)

Ehm, almost everyone agreed with you.

JayTee (April 13, 2007)

Hey, they rolled some toothpicks onstage, what the fuck?

*adjust eyes *

Oh wait! *cheeeeeeers! *

Someone (April 13, 2007)

god i love pete doherty.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

Doherty vs Wentz - Which is the more annoying Pete? Which is more likely to end up in a mental institution by the time they're thirty?

(Unless they're already thirty, I don't know)

Discuss.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

I'm pretty sure Pete Wentz is 29 or 30. It's like when the Mooney Suzuki lied about thier ages to try to appeal to a younger set.

Someone (April 14, 2007)

Well, that was an estimate anyway. I'm really not the kind of person who knows how old either of these people are.

Pete Doherty or Shannon Doherty?

Dante3000 (rich) (April 13, 2007)

The phrase "frontmen" is used quite loosely.
-Dante

Someone (April 13, 2007)

i never understood why anyone liked the libertines. they were just fucking annoying. and babyshambles are even worse. doherty is an arrogant attention seeking prick.

Someone (April 14, 2007)

...you mean he's a rockstar?

Someone (April 13, 2007)

that babyshambles is pretty good

Someone (April 13, 2007)

I understand people enjoying the Libertines and even Babyshambles (I guess) because that's just music. But why the fuck does anyone care about Pete Doherty? He's fucking worthless. I guess it's a Keith Richards fascination, like "Why isn't this guy dying?" Well, Keith Richards is pretty worthless too, especially now that he doesn't even write good music.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

The Libertines are GREAT. Babyshambles and the Dirty Pretty Things are better than 99% of the shite that is covered here on Alternativepress.com.

Who gives a fuck either way about Pete's drug habits. The man is super talented, as is Carl Barat.

I can't wait till the Libs get back together. It'll happen.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

how awesome would thatda been.

Someone (April 13, 2007)

manchester united will win the UEFA cup

mark my words

-hXc007

Mr_Streetcore (April 15, 2007)

i like those odds i think the FA cupis within their grasp too

Someone (April 15, 2007)

Winning a cup they are not in would be well impressive......

Mr_Streetcore (April 16, 2007)

i believe he is refering to the UEFA champions league

OzmanX (April 14, 2007)

Oh yeah!

riversmonkey (April 14, 2007)

The Libertines were great.

Regarding Doherty. Aren't rock stars supposed to take drugs and shag supermodels?

CountChocula (April 14, 2007)

I can't understand the hate towards Doherty tbh. Dunno why he bothers everyone so much?

Mr_Streetcore (April 15, 2007)

the reason why doherty is loathed so much is because people read too many tabloids. i couldn't care less about what doherty does in his spare tim i like the libertines and i quite like babyshambles.
