The Libertines covered The Stone Roses‘ classic hit ‘Waterfall’ during their show in Manchester over the weekend.
The band wrapped up their performance at the Albert Hall in the city with the cover on Saturday (November 9).
As they kicked off the track, fans could be heard singing the intro before Pete Doherty took up the vocal duties and Carl Barât took up the lead guitar. You can view the performance below.
The show was part of their ongoing UK ‘All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade’ tour, which is set to wrap up later this month. See all the dates and ticket information here.
During the gig, the band performed a host of tracks from their recent album of the same name alongside their classic hits ‘Up The Bracket’, ‘Time For Heroes’, ‘Don’t Look Back Into The Sun’ and ‘Can’t Stand Me Now’.
The Libertines will next perform at the Engine Shed in Lincoln on November 17, before wrapping up at the O2 Academy Bournemouth on November 21.
Earlier this month, they announced a huge London show for 2025 alongside special guests Supergrass, as well as Soft Play, Hak Baker, Lambrini Girls and Real Farmer, who are signed to Doherty‘s record label Strap Originals.
The homecoming show is set to take place at London’s Gunnersbury Park on Saturday, 9 August 2025. Any remaining tickets are available here.
‘All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade’ recently landed the band their first UK Number One album in 20 years. Ahead of its release, The Libertines spoke to NME about the record, with Barât explaining that the band were all “facing in the same direction” for this record.
“There’s been a lot of focus and everyone’s been working on finding their own personal place in the world as well. Everyone has very different lives and we managed to find something to unite over,” he said at the time.
Reviewing the album, NME awarded it four stars and said that the band had “found their voice again”.
The review added: “The band’s first album in nearly a decade doesn’t chase the same intoxicating high as their early material. They sound better for it.”
Elsewhere, Doherty and Barât recently designed two new Libertines-inspired jackets in collaboration with menswear brand Blue Flowers.
