Carl Barât has joined The Molotovs on stage for ‘What A Waster’

The Libertines’ Carl Barât joined The Molotovs at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town for a rendition of ‘What A Waster’.

“A doctor has been called to assess Peter’s condition tonight after he developed a high fever and shortness of breath,” the post explains. “Thankfully, he has tested negative for COVID-19, but has been diagnosed with a respiratory infection which requires immediate treatment.

Now, they've updated fans to confirm they're good to go for the next date on the tour, at London's O2 Forum Kentish Town tonight.

"After responding well to treatment overnight, Peter has been allowed to travel to London today and tonight’s show will therefore go ahead," the band write.
