PETE DOHERTY BANGED UP..AGAIN

Pete Doherty has been sentenced to six months in jail after pleading guilty to cocaine possession.

The Libertines man appeared at Snaresbrook Crown Court in his hometown London today (May 20) to hear his sentence, reports the Press Association. The verdict came after a police investigation into the death of his friend, filmmaker Robin Whitehead in 2009.

Judge David Radford, sentencing Doherty said: "From what I have heard and what I have read there is no doubt that you are a talented and successful musician. However, you have an appalling record of committed offences of the kind for which you fall to be sentenced today."


Also sentenced today was Doherty's 'For Lovers' collaborator Wolfman, aka Peter Wolfe. he was handed a one-year jail term.

This is the third time Doherty has been jailed. In 2003 he was sent to prison for burgling his Libertines bandmate Carl Barat's flat then in 2008 he was jailed for breaching probation rules.

The singer recently wrote a blog in which he claimed he had not supplied Whitehead with drugs despite her living with him. He also tried to distance himself further from the 2006 death of Mark Blanco in the blog

WHAT YOU CAN CLUBBERS EXPECT FROM YOUR CLUBNIGHT?i ain’t gonna say ‘expect the un-expected’ cause that is corny as you like - but there will be lots of great music on and of the decks so will be a memorable night one way of the other. You will also more than likely get to see me get very drunk - but hey if you ain’t seen that before you obviously do not go out enough...

WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST MUSICAL MEMORY?My earliest musical memory would be my moms LP of south pacific. You gotta love Rogers and Hammerstein.

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CLUBBING EXPERIENCE?that would be at 5 yrs of age with dennis davies, and roy ayres in a club in new york. didn’t get there till about 03.00am and didn’t leave till about 04.30.

WHAT WAS THE FIRST GIG YOU WENT TO?Think that coulda been miles davies or roy ayres but was more than likely my dad and his buddies jamming in a garage whilst drinking home made hooch.

WHAT WAS THE LAST GIG YOU WENT TO?Primal scream a few weeks ago and The Pogues a few hours into the future...

WHO WOULD BE IN YOUR FANTASY BAND?Jack White lead guitar and vocals
Alison Mosshart lead and backing vocals
George duke bass guitar and synth’s
Chic Corea, keys and percussion
Dave Grohl, drums coffee and anarchy (and whatever else he wants to do...)
The Berlin philharmonic and last and least me! writing, arranging and conducting!

IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME WHAT MUSICAL FIGURE WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET
Leonard Bernstein and Marvin Gaye

WHAT ARE YOUR TOP FIVE TRACKS OF ALL TIME?In no order of preference:
Massive attack -Angel
Teri thornton - where was I
j Dilla - the safety dance
Smoke City - giulietta
Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell - your all I need to get by!

WHICH NEW ARTISTS ARE MAKING THE RIGHT NOISES OUT THERE?Again in no specific order of preference: Everything - Everything, Magnetic Man, Katy B, Law Abiding Citizens, Jeye T, The Baddies, Antlered Man, Dashikter, Lizzie Nightingale. man don’t get me started!!!

WHY SHOULD CLUBBERS COME TO YOUR NIGHT?well lets face it - you don’t have to - but if folks do come they can be guaranteed music, fun, and frolics. i ain’t gonna make promises that i can’t keep like stripping butt naked if everybody comes (but you never know...)

In my early teens, guitar bands like Oasis, Blur, Supergrass and the Manics were nestled in amongst all the other Tripe flooding the charts, I prefered guitar music to Dance music. My twin brother (Jim, also drummer in Baddies) decided to learn drums and start a band, I was insanely jealous, so taught myself how to play 'smells like teen spirt' badly on guitar and then invited myself to join the band!
After playing guitar and bass in other bands, I now Write, Sing and play guitar in Baddies and we are currently writing our second record.
If you could work with anyone in the world, who would it be?I'd like to do a music video with Megaforce and i'd like Justice to remix a Baddies track.
