    The Libertines will receive around £1.5million for performing at the Reading and Leeds festival in August, it's been reported.

    The British group are understood to have agreed to reform in their original line-up for the festival.

    It will mark the first time guitarist Carl Barat, drummer Gary Powell and bassist John Hassall have performed with singer Pete Doherty since his acrimonious departure in 2004.

    The band will fill one of the headline slots in return for the substantial financial sum, according to the Guardian.

    As previously reported on Gigwise, it is thought that The Libertines could record new material and announce additional dates if the performances prove successful.
    The article's a bit waffley but it's confirmed here:

    Has anyone heard anything else about this? I'm trying to decide whether or not I should buy a ticket for Reading as this could be my only chance to see them but I've already got one for Oxegen and money's a bit of a problem.

    I think the likelihood is though that they'll play more shows and probably come to Ireland but that's just my own guess... does anyone else have any ideas? :) I'm dying to see them live!
