“Four months is a long time for the Libertines, so whatever happens, happens… We’re going to see how it goes. If it works, it works.”

– The Libertines’ Carl Barât discusses (via Spin) his band’s recently announced, $2.2 million reunion during a press conference in London on Wednesday.

Shortly afterward, The Libertines teased their forthcoming Reading and Leeds performance with an impromptu acoustic set. You can watch them perform “Death on the Stairs” below, and we must say it sounds pretty solid. Though before you get super excited, Barât did go on to note that the band has yet to sit alone in a room together, so whether this thing actually happens is anyone’s guess.
