The Libertines on “Pete Doherty Freedom Gig“ at the Tap’n’Tin, Chatham, Kent, 8th October 2003
“From the outset the pair of them clicked back into what they’d always been, though, swapping vocals, sharing the microphone as Gary and John kept everything grounded and driving. There seemed to be an intensity as they sang and held eye contact. […] The effect was extraordinary. Dozens of people couldn’t hold it any longer and started sobbing with joy. everything had been put behing them. This was the best they’d ever been; there was no going back now.”

Somehow I’ve never seen this article. It reminds of friendship as one of the most precious things on Earth.
They were draped over each other, in serious danger of sliding to the floor…They were completely on each other’s wavelength; their mumbles and giggles and sighs and shouts were incomprehensible to everyone but each other. Everyone else watching was outside their world—they weren’t aware of anything apart from each other.
—Anthony Thornton, Bound Together
