London (ANI): Rocker Pete Doherty has confirmed that his former band The Libertines will reform next year. The Babyshambles frontman is so serious about the project that he doesn"t even mind using look-alikes if the others don"t join in.

However, ex band members" bassist John Hassall and drummer Gary Powell are already in for the show. Now, the band is only waiting for Carl Barat to decide the schedule for the reunion gig.

The Sun quoted Doherty as saying: "Maybe I could reform The Libertines without him, like he did without me." He added, "I'll put an advert in NME: Carlos lookalike required".
