The godlike genius of David Bowie has pulled out of all festival appearences/pop concerts in July - that includes T In The Park - "due to the continuing pain and extreme discomfort from a trapped/pinched nerve in his shoulder," according to a statement issued today.
The Libertines, however, are still on for the festival and other planned gigs... but without Pete Doherty. The band told NME: "Peter's erratic mental state worries us greatly and having him on tour would only compound his problems. We aim to complete all existing tour commitments without him."
How fun.
