Babyshambles begin tour
20/02/2006 - 13:39:45Pete Doherty's band Babyshambles are beginning a tour which was rescheduled after the singer was held in custody on drugs charges.
The band cancelled dates in Bristol, Glasgow, Newcastle and London following Pete's arrest last month.
The ex-Libertines singer subsequently received a 12-month community service order after pleading guilty to seven charges of drug possession. The 26-year-old was ordered to attend a drug rehabilitation programme and warned he could face prison if he broke his community service order.
He subsequently vowed to "start a drug-free life" and even said he was "not that much of a junkie anyway".
Babyshambles' tour begins at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire tonight, ending at Manchester Academy on Sunday.
