Wow😱😱😱 I have so many questions!! Has Pete ever spoken about this?? Like I say, we will never know exactly what happened/who did what but I wonder if they themselves even remember. So horrific
Im not sure tbh it’s one of the things that made me set up the thread as I find it terrible that the men had already been attacked inside the flat that night then without one minute of reentering the flat was thrown off the balcony to his death. From what I’ve read he was hassling Pete to come see a play he was involved with and Pete asked his ‘minder’ to sort him out which was how he was initially attacked. How callous of them to check his body upon leaving the flat then disappear into the night. Everyone there that night who failed to help him is complicit in his death IMO.

Have you heard the podcast called “the conspiracy theory, adolf hitler/Pete Doherty”
First half is Hitler, but the second half is a conspiracy theory that Pete is a made up person essentially created as an experiment and then fell in love with the lifestyle!! Totally crazy but interesting to listen to nevertheless.

This would actually make my whole cats in the hat encounter make a little more sense 🤭🤣

It really is!!🤣 I do think he’s very talented and clever. It’s a shame he didn’t get clean like Russell Brand did and re invent himself...he could’ve been so much more successful. wonder if he still does heroin. Know he got caught with coke about 2 years ago😪

Whenever I've seen recent pictures being posted of Pete online these days, all the comments say how much better he looks. I'd love to see The Libertines live when things are back to normal as I was about 4 years old during their prime but I'd feel guilty after reading about peoples' bad experiences with Pete on here and I also wouldn't want to pay to see him so visibly unwell and drugged up on stage.

Well I’ve gone down a rabbit hole, lockdown must’ve got to me. I’m fascinated by him and his character in general, many interviews he comes across so well. So clever and on the ball, then other times he’s cutting himself in front of the camera and squirting a syringe of blood at the camera!! I don’t know what to make 😱 I’ve ordered his book lol, hoping to get in his head a bit more

He does seem quite eloquent and his songwriting is gorgeous - such a shame that he became so addicted to drugs.

He is a fascinating character and I think it’s a terrible shame he has spent so many years lost in his addictions. I remember all the furore surrounding the gigs years ago when he wouldn’t turn up or would be in such a bad way he would be incoherent. He seemed to have such a big fan base and his behaviour must have frustrated the life out of them who genuinely attended gigs for the music. His relationship with Kate Moss is just so bizarre I remember once reading an article that said Johnny Depp had met them for a dinner in London and gave Pete his seal of approval 🤣

Russell Brand is not someone to aspire to considering that he's a serial rapist.

For some reason he’s always fascinated me but I’ve recently read the most awful rumours about him leaving women to die of over doses and something similar with cats too.

Sorry, but all the wistful romanticism about a depraved junkie who has had ample chances to get clean but never truly bothered and who leaves young girls to die is making me boak. It's a definite bleeping no from me.

I actually agree! Some people venerate him as a modern day Lord Byron, but I’ve always found him seedy to the extreme, and the Albion schtick is really tedious.

There's nothing like accompanying artistic talent to glamourise excess in drink or drugs.
The Rolling Stones built a career on it and many other bands have then tried to emulate that formula. Idolising junkie singers, musicians, authors, poets e.t.c

Except Pete has no talent.

I saw The Libertines live when they did some reunion gigs a few years ago with a mate putting me on the guest list. Shockingly bad. But then I've never been a fan.

100% this (apart from the term Junkie which I don't like, personally). I can't believe anyone would read this thread, which includes personal stories and think "I'm going to try and understand this man".

Just because he was smart and has done some whimsical things doesn't mean he's not a completely poisonous hole.

I feel like my post about wanting to understand his head was taken the wrong way a bit sorry! I love reading books or watching documentaries about good/bad people, eg serial killers who I deffo don’t want to “understand” but I just have a big interest in psychology I guess. Deffo didn’t mean for ppl to think I’m admiring him!😪
