Sobbing Pete Doherty almost quit band after underwear prank

London, March 14 (ANI): Pete Doherty was left in tears and had almost decided to abandon his band after a fan's underwear prank during a gig.

The Babyshambles frontman revealed several years ago he had thrown himself at the Dundee crowd in Scotland when a fan got hold of his pants and fiercely pulled them upwards.

"The gig was going great, so I thought, 'I'll dive in,' and this big Scotsman just grabbed hold of my pants and said, 'Cop a load of this, Doherty'. Those were his exact words," the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

"I hid in the tour bus crying. When they (my bandmates) found me I was crying my eyes out, going, 'The band's not working out. We should split up.'

"Nobody believed what was wrong, and eventually I snapped, 'All right, I got a wedgie, OK?'" he added. (ANI)
