General Comments
When I went to see Babyshambles at the Brixton Academy I didn't even think that Pete was going to show up, until I got there and he was hanging out of a window spraying beer at people. The atmosphere was brilliant, and there were non stop back up bands, until a roadie came out and announced that Babyshambles were coming. When they came out the crowd went mad.
They played really well! Pete wasn't off his head, and could walk in a straight line. Most of their songs were from their new albums, but they where still brilliant. Kilimanjiro was brilliant, with everyone singing along. A performance of Albion, which I've never heard before, was also brilliant, and should definitely be on the new album. There was also an encore which lasted over half an hour, which consisted of Pete jumping into the crowd, throwing his hat, his shirt, and even the microphone.
The night was brilliant, but poor sound quality was the only thing really that affected it.
On average, people found this review very helpful

on 12th Nov 2006I don't know. It was a while ago. It was most of the songs that were off the last Babyshambles album, and the encore was all the Wolfman songs.



I was at the Babyshambles gig, and I agree that it was great to see him sober, for once!
Does anyone have a set list for this gig? I really want to find out what some of the new tunes are called!
Hope you can help!
