Peter for second Rhythm Factory date

From NME.com:
Pete Doherty has announced that he will play a second date at the London Rhythm Factory venue later this month.The Babyshambles man had previously announced details of a tribute gig for the later promoter Johnny 'Rhythm' Sedassy at the venue, set for May 15. He will now play a second date the following night (May 16). See the venue's official website, Rhythmfactory.co.uk for more information. Plus, see the new issue of NME, out today (May 6), for an interview with Doherty about why he thinks Babyshambles can steal Oasis' crown as Britain's biggest band.

From what I gather the first night (15th) is not going to be a Peter solo gig but a Babyshambles one (which excites me much more I should say). Adam said: "I think this may be a shambles gig now, spoke to Peter, surprised we (the band) weren't asked in the first place by the organisers, but that's another issue! All of us 'other 3' were friends with Johnny and want to show our love and respect for the fine fella, see you there". Besides, it is rumoured the DJs of the night might be the mysterious Team Disgusting, who are noone else than Noel Fielding and an ex Towers of London member.
