Pete Doherty returned to some of his finest songs with the Libertines during a solo show in Manchester over the weekend.
Doherty’s show at the Academy 1 in Manchester was his first solo date since his release from prison two weeks ago.
Dressed in his trademark suit and trilby, Doherty wowed crowds with ‘What A Waster’ and ‘Up The Bracket’, as well as a selection of Babyshambles b-sides.
‘Time For Heroes’ and ‘Can’t Stand Me Now’ were also aired later on in the performance.
Doherty’s show coincided with the publication of a video of him and Amy Winehouse playing with one-day-old baby mice.
