Babyshambles have announced that they will tour the UK without Pete Doherty this year.

Bassist Drew McConnell told NME that Doherty is invited to watch their performances.

McConnell explained: "If he's in town, I'm sure he'd love to come out [and watch].

"But he's in Paris at the moment nurturing his burgeoning career as an actor and, as far as I'm concerned, hopefully writing some new songs."

Meanwhile, on whether the band will split up after the tour, McConnell said that it was pointless to speculate.

"You know what, people have been asking me that since 2004 and I always have the same answer," he continued.

"It's not the [kind of] band where you can make plans. It's a very volatile and unpredictable band to be in."
