Last night at the Forum, Kentish Town, the reunited Libertines threw out the gauntlet to any wannabe pretenders.
Carl and Pete led the maverick crusaders into a vintage repertoire that would make any musically enabled person smile. Dressed in trademark black Carl's vocals on 'Shoop Shoop' had the lucky few stumbling over chairs in an unusually seated venue.
'Pete held his own' said a joyful invitee 'But Carl was the beating heart tonight. I can't wait for Reading, in my musical calendar it's got to be the gig of the year.'
The plucky foursome delivered a frantically calm set including all the hits so if you are in Leeds or Reading make sure you don't miss this. It's what music is all about, great tunes delivered well, with emotion, charisma and a willing suspension of disbelief. World class!
Music News were lucky enough to witness the event and can only say if all 'warm up' gigs worked this well there would be no point in festivals.
On the grapevine we hear that there could be a new Libertines album in the making, we hope that is true.
