Modern legends The Libertines will play their first gig since 2004 on August 25. They are reforming later in the month for Reading and Leeds and it has been announced that the quartet will perform an intimate warm-up show at London’s HMV Forum.
Tickets for the event won’t be going on general sale, but fans can enter a ballot on the band’s website from now until Friday August 13, which will then distribute the tickets at random.
Carl Barat recently admitted the band haven’t rehearsed together since they announced their reformation in March. “It’s always a bit last minute with The Libertines. If we did it any other way it wouldn’t be The Libertines.”
