PETE DOHERTY left hundreds of fans disappointed this weekend after pulling out of three gigs because of an arm injury.
The Babyshambles singer dropped out of three live shows planned for the 20th, 21st and 22nd December at London's Rhythm Factory.
A spokesperson for the venue told NME.COM that Doherty called staff at the venue on Saturday night to cancel "at the 11th hour - just before he was due on".
Last night's show was due to be filmed for a DVD to be released with his forthcoming new album.
The trio of dates have been rescheduled for January 8, 9 and 10 and all tickets for the December dates remain valid. For further information, see Rhythmfactory.co.uk.
