Babyshambles drummer Adam Ficek says the band are “stronger than we’ve ever been” as they gear up for their biggest ever tour.
The band have often been prey to the vagaries of singer Pete Doherty’s erractic, drug-fuelled personal life, but Ficek says the group is finally coming together.
He says, “Everybody is maturing in the band and we're getting stronger as a unit. Musically, we're stronger than we've ever been."
However, he does add that if the band mess up their big arena tour in November and new deal with Parlophone then they will be history.
He warns, “We're lucky enough to have another stab and if we don't get it right this time, there are so many great bands out there that'll just overtake us.”
