Pete Doherty would like to apologise to everyone who turned up to The Barfly in Camden last night (Monday the 2nd of August.)
Pete turned up at the venue at 11pm with his guitar tech and encountered problems at the door. A doorman refused to let the tech in and was very aggressive towards a number of fans who had gathered at the entrance.
Pete has issued the following statement:
"We have played at venues up and down the country on this tour, some of which had no security, and have encountered no problems or witnessed any aggression. I simply asked the bouncer last night to apologise for his behaviour, three times in fact, and he refused. I was very upset at his attitude and although i'm very sorry for letting everyone down last night, I refuse to play at venues where pumped up, 16 stone men feel the need to be aggressively rude and to bully teenage kids around."
Doherty has pulled The Camden Barfly date on Friday the 6th of August, but will continue on the acoustic UK tour alongside Dot Allison, Selfish Cunt and Andrew Avling of The White Sport on the last two dates in Bristol and Shrewsbury.
A new London Date will announced in the very near future
