Peter Doherty arrived for his gig at the Mandela Hall three months after he was originally set to play the venue with enough time passed for the audience to have listened to and digested his excellent solo album Grace/Wastelands. An album designed to present Doherty as a solo artist, distinct from his current act Babyshambles (and explaining the move from “Pete” to “Peter”), the accompanying tour similarly had Doherty as (except for one instance of an accompanying harmonica) the sole musician on stage. This, combined with the relatively confined surroundings of Mandela Hall, suggested the possibility of an intimate atmosphere.
