    Agreed but The Village gig last December was slightly better IMO

    F**k Forever, Gang of Gin, I'm in Love With a Feeling, My Darling Clementine, Albion, Killamangiro, The Man Who Came To Stay, Blackboy Lane, Wolfman were the songs from the setlist I remembered. Does anyone know what the other songs were called, I think they were all newbies or i just havent heard them.

    F**k Forever - the future anthem of 2005

    Pete you legend!

    Saw them at the Trinity Ball the night before. Was planning on going to the Ambassador gig too but I was a bit wrecked and ****ed. Did they play at Libertines stuff? What Katie Did and Time For Heroes were included in the Trinty Ball set...

    Babyshambles prove a shambles in Dublin


    16 May 2005

    Hot Press' Babyshambles correspondent Steve Cummins reports from the Trinity Ball and the Ambassador Theatre

    Pete Doherty Watchers had a field day at the weekend with the ever-shambolic Babyshambles singer appearing at the Trinity Ball and Dublin's Ambassador Theatre on consecutive nights.

    Although parents of Trinity students had ample cause for concern, it was Doherty's Saturday night headliner at the Ambassador that proved the most hazardous experience, with reports of skirmishes between security personnel and members of the audience.

    According to Hot Press' Steve Cummins, a seasoned Doherty Watcher who was in attendance for both Babyshambles appearances, the ruckus erupted during the song 'Wolf Man', when Doherty attempted to bring people onto the stage:

    "Pete got very angry when he saw a skirmish down below between security and his fans. He threw his mic down at one of the bouncers and then he jumped down and reportedly started hitting one of the bouncers. His manager and one of the roadies had to pull him back onto the stage," says Cummins.

    Earlier in the night there were doubts as to whether the Babyshambles singer would even be joining his band. Cummins recounts:

    "Doherty had kept the crowd waiting long enough and the general feeling, about an hour after the support band came off stage, was that he wasn't going to show. When he did the place went mad. The gig itself was amazing, and certainly a vast improvement on the previous night at Trinity
