Pete Doherty has given a fan £20 after they were refused entry to one of his gigs for being too drunk.

The rocker met teenager Wesley Shearer outside Glasgow Barrowlands and sympathised with his plight.

Shearer told the Daily Record: "Me and my mates decided to have a drink before the gig but the stewards refused me entry.

"I saw a cab pull up at the stage door and realised it was Pete arriving for the gig. I shouted his name and he looked round so I told him I couldn't get into the gig.

"He shook my hand and when I opened it there was a £20 note in it. It made my night."
