What I read on their message board made it seem like he was in rehab.  The people on that site claimed to have a picture of him shooting up and it sounded like the picture is periodically posted, why people would want to see that, I dont know.

A guy I know spent some time with the 'Tines earlier this year and said the lead guy (sorry, don't know his name) has some serious pharmaceutical issues -- way above and beyond your normal rock-star drug use.  So if you want a good show on 8-16, bring him some crack.  Seriously.

The best part of the demos is Adam Green doing What a Waster.

Oh, cool! I've heard they put on a great live show.
 
 I have mixed feelings about their music but love the song Spirit Of St. Louis. In fact, I like their singles much better than their album.

That's fantastic! I want to see them more than the Libertines! That made my rather rough day so much brighter.
