Doherty to go "clean"

2006-06-08 by Damrod EMERITUS | 10 Comments
Maybe the recent events finally move something regarding Pete Doherty. After screwing over the fans yet again last weekend at the "Rock am Ring" festival in Germany (the band was hours late on stage, playing at 2am in the morning instead of around 7pm), Pete Doherty decided to enter a drug withdrawal in Portugal.
Word is that he decided that for himself, and that nobody sent or forced him to go there. In the next few weeks Doherty wants to detoxicate, and will undergo a small surgery to get an implant that will lower the intensity of withdrawal syndrome.
Yes, this is not really completely new regarding doherty, as he entered withdrawal before and failed. Miserably, that is. But maybe this time the outcome will be for the better.

If he truely decided that for himself, then that's good, and I'm pleased for him.

To be honest I doubt it will come to anything, but I'm sick of this whole Pete Doherty saga, I just wish he could find the happyness he seemed to have in the early Libertines days. I know he gets a lot of hate around here, but at the end of the day he's just a young man who has been seriously misled.

Anyways I wish him good luck, although I suspect the comments which follow won't be so kind.

if he succeeds time, well good for him and what an achievement.

if he fails, then he might as well just give up. he's beat.

however, either way, i hope he quits music. good music does sometimes come as a result of drug (ab)use. doherty is an exception to this rule.

I think you can only make good drug induced music from psychedelic and hallucinogenics. He should put down the skag and pick up some LSD. Then all his mishaps will be laughable. But seriously, good luck Pete.

If he makes it, good for him.
I still never want to hear anything by him or about him again.
