Pete Doherty embarks on Irish tour

Peter Doherty made his first 2011 festival appearance playing the Festival Republic Stage at Leeds Festival, playing a host of mainly new material. Peter also paid tribute to his dear friend, Amy Winehouse, playing a cover of 'Tears dry on their own'.

Last May he had to cancel his Irish shows following a jail sentence for cocaine possession. His rescheduled gigs will now take place on the following days:

The Academy, Dublin: September 14 (€28)
Nerve Centre, Derry: September 15 (£22)
Mandela Hall, Belfast: September 16 (£23.50)

Tickets are on sale from [link]www.ticketmaster.ie[/link] and Ticketmaster outlets. All original tickets held from the postponed May shows remain valid.
