The Libertines reunited tonight (April 12) onstage in
London.
Pete Doherty and
Carl Barat played 13 songs at the second of
Doherty's
An Evening With Pete Doherty gigs at the
Hackney Empire.
During the second half of the show
Doherty teased the audience by saying: "You've been waiting for this moment. Ladies and gentlemen
Mr Carlos Barat...only joking! What do you expect for 25 quid?"
Then
Barat came on stage, wearing a
Dior Homme suit and a trilby.
The duo played 13 Libertines classics including
'What Katie Did' and
'Time For Heroes'.
They whispered and hugged each other in between songs. During their cover of
'Dream A Little Dream' Barat did a tap dancing routine.
They encored the song
'The Delaney', left the stage and then re- emerged triumphantly holding each others hands in the air.
The party continued at the back of the venue, after the gig, with
Doherty and
Barat performing an impromptu version of
'Can't Stand Me Now'.
Doherty's girlfriend
Kate Moss was present.
