Well, if you're going to cancel gigs at the last minute you need to announce them first. With that in mind, Babyshambles have gamely announced a clutch of Irish tour dates for next month, with one stop-off in France. You can attempt to catch The Pete Doherty Sideshow at the following locations:
11 Apr: Paris Le Bataclan
12 Apr: Carlow Music Factory
13 Apr: Dublin Temple Bar Music Centre
14 Apr: Belfast Spring And Airbrake
15 Apr: Derry Nerve Centre
16 Apr: Cork Savoy
Unless, of course, things don't go Doherty's way at Thames Magistrates Court tomorrow, where he'll be facing seven counts of drug possession. I'm losing track of which court hearings relate to which incidents, though I'm pretty sure this one relates to arrests in December and January. That recent 12 month community service order relating to other drugs charges is also up for review this week - so personally I'd hold off booking those Babyshambles tickets for the time being.
