Pete Doherty announces Babyshambles comeback gig

The gig will be the first Doherty and his band will have played since the singer/guitarist was released from Wormwood Scrubs prison today (May 6).

Pete Doherty was released from jail at 7am (BST) this morning after serving 29 days of a 14-week sentence for beaching probation. Doherty told reporters that he was clean of drugs and showed a certificate from medical authorities to back the claim up.

Doherty has also announced that his forthcoming solo show at the London Royal Albert Hall has been rescheduled for July 12.
