Pretty impressive: Barat's new boys sell out tour in 20 minutes
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver January 27th, 2006

Carl Barat's post-Libertines venture Dirty Pretty Things have sold out their first UK tour in a staggeringly short amount of time: twenty whole minutes.

NME.com reports that the band had to upgrade their Glasgow show to the ABC, instead of the ABC2, such was the demand for tickets up north. Tickets went on sale yesterday at 9am, as reported here.

The band's website, here, currently features a video for the song 'Bang Bang You're Dead', should the curious wish to check them out.
