Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted July 13, 2004 I am feeling a bit sorry for Mr. Reaper. The Courtney Love thread seemed to be taking over the "mad as a mongoose" crown. So, for the sake of GR's sanity, a nice little piece about Mr. Doherty - who is still King of the 'Crackpots'! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml...ixartright.html DWB 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted July 13, 2004 Ooh thats a bit of a "finger on the pulse" article for the Torygraph! Actually, I have to admit to quite liking the Libs forthcoming single - so perhaps it's the Libs forum for me now - if only I wasnt such a coward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted August 15, 2004 I assume this is the thread in question? Playground insults and glorification of rape would seem to be the order of the day on the Libertines forum then. http://www.thelibertines.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2419 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Typhoid Harry 23 Posted August 15, 2004 http://www.thelibertines.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2419 Wow! Faint praise? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted August 15, 2004 Damn - I thought it was unanimous hatred for the DL until towards the end. At least somebody got the correct interpretation - and check it out, Libs kids, dont overlook the fact I gave praise to the current single! - Hey I would have even got to check them out live if Mr D hadnt been too mangled for their Glasto booking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rude Kid 3 Posted August 15, 2004 At least somebody got the correct interpretation Yeah, took a while, but they got there in the end. I liked this comment though: one word for that forum... wierd. One word, and he managed to spell it wrong. Good work, Mr Goddard! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted August 18, 2004 It's been a while, but he's back . . . http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/3573366.stm I wonder if he can beat Courtney's record of having 3 court cases going at once? DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teddy 21 Posted August 18, 2004 From the BBC report Speaking outside the court, Doherty said: "If the law was to send me to prison it wouldn't be able to look itself in the eye." Does that explain why Justice is normally shown wearing a blindfold? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted August 23, 2004 More bad news for Pete... NME Latest Sounds like he came across one of those friendly posters from the Alex Higgins thread ! Frankly, if it wasnt for the Olympics, the life and times of Pete would be in gold medal positon for newspaper column inches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted September 3, 2004 Blimey, we haven't had a Pete Posting for over a week! http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/crime/sto...sp?story=557433 Sometimes you just get lucky! DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stayin Alive 26 Posted September 4, 2004 True enough. Yes, did mean to post up about this. There was a nice quote in the Guardian where Pete said something like, "his justice had me a bit worried there for a moment", regarding escaping from a near prison sentence.

Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted September 24, 2004 Pete does go through the whole spectrum of emotions: Today he is in love (not Courtney though): http://www.onlypunjab.com/real/fullstory-newsID-1127.html Ladies, would you take Pete home to meet your parents?

Grim Reaper 186 Posted October 20, 2004 More bad news for Pete as its reported that he is being blanked by the Libs... http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/entertainment/8442004.htm Looking at the page though - its hardly surprising - it appears that Pete has undergone some dramatic plastic surgery so that he looks like Robert Del Naja from Massive Attack...perhaps this also explains his recent string of no shows for gigs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stayin Alive 26 Posted October 21, 2004 Maybe Pete should try the Lib Dems then... They might be a bit more open-minded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted November 30, 2004 Hold on, it's been over a month since we've heard from PD - better trawl the net to find out what the DL's favourite addict has been up to. Here we go: http://www.gigwise.com/contents.asp?contentid=3372 Honestly, what an arse! DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted December 1, 2004 I have noticed that NME are laying off Pete a bit now - bit his cause has been taken over by FemaleFirst.co.uk - a strange gossipy website it is. Not sure what their fascination is - maybe hes just easy gossip for lazy journalists - or maybe its their "don't bring one home to your mum and dad like this, gals" message Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerberus 302 Posted December 11, 2004 He was on Top Of the Pops last night with his new band Babyshambles and their here-today-gone-tomorrow hit "Kilimanjaro". Looked healthy enough to me. Song is rubbish though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Wotcher Posted December 13, 2004 He looked healthy om TOTP? Are you joking? He looked like a classic sallow faced, screwed up wasted junky. Look at a pic of him from before the skag spree and compare it how he looked the other night. Healthy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted December 16, 2004 Well of course we know the NME has got it in for Pete etc. etc. but this would appear to be a giant leap backwards... NME 15 Dec 2004 Frankly he's back in my running for 2005. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
football_fan 42 Posted December 17, 2004 I have to agree with you on that one GR. I would not be surprised if he croaks next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moosey 3 Posted December 17, 2004 Well of course we know the NME has got it in for Pete etc. etc. but this would appear to be a giant leap backwards...NME 15 Dec 2004 Frankly he's back in my running for 2005. NME also reported chaos on TOTP the previous week. In both cases, it was noted that there was no comment from the band’s official spokesperson. Call me picky but, in my book, that makes him/her a pretty piss-poor spokesperson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kate Posted December 18, 2004 You are all f*****g sad acts and if you really cared about Pete and what is happening in his life at the moment you would know enough to realise that predicting his death is a load of b******s and you really should get a life.
