It's a good sign that Babyshambles aren't having to play old libertines songs. With the release of Shotters Nation they have shaken off the stigma of Babyshambles being almost like a Libertines tribute as the early shows seemed to suggest.They have enough of a strong fanbase and back collection to not need to play any Libs material now. I think this was the reason they played the stadium shows, to let people see once and for all just how good Babyshambles songs are on their own.Up the Shambles
