The Libertines Biography


February 2003

They headline the NME Awards show. It's their biggest and best show to date. A day later they are Awarded Best New Band in The NME Awards.

March 2003

The band are forced to cancel their European tour after Carl contracts pneumonia. The dispirited band return home. On getting better they celebrate with a 'secret' gig in their squat, The Albion Rooms, in East London to a tiny audience. Needless to say the police arrive to break it up, and as their boots are pounding on their rickety stairs Pete and Carl serenade them with The Clash's Guns Of Brixton: "When they kick at your front door/How you gonna come? /With your hands on your head/Or on the trigger of your gun." The police let them off with a warning.

April 2003

They head out to Japan and then to Coachella where their set is pulled after ten minutes due to another band over-running. There is such an outcry that they are given a full set the following day, they are one of the hits of the festival. In the same month the band record a new single 'Don't Look Back Into The Sun'/'Death On The Stairs' with Bernard Butler.
