Babyshambles get it together?


Babyshambles are pledging to stop missing gigs starting with this weekend's Leeds and Reading festivals. Guitarist Patrick Walden says the band have now got their act together, reports XFM.They are also now focused on completing their debut album. "We met up, we said some things and we're all moving in the right direction again," explained Walden."From now on we're not going to say we'll play unless it's definite, definite, definite. The only reason we won't be there is if we're struck down by lightning, because there's only so far you can take flakiness. "It's OK if it's the Rhythm Factory on a Tuesday night, but with big gigs it's not fair. I understand why people always ask us if we're really going to turn up, especially after the last few weeks. "But anyone who knows Pete knows he's very much into his fans, he loves his fans and is very close to them. "The pair also hinted there could be a number of spontaneous gigs in the days leading up to Reading and Leeds. On the album, Walden said: "I think we'll finish it in the next few weeks unless - and I don't think this will happen - it's not as good as it could be. We don't want it to come out until it's the best it can be. "People have been waiting for this record and I know they won't wait forever, but another month to get it 100% right is worth it. It's a real chance and if we get it right it will affect a lot of people."
