Posted November 4, 200717 yr Babyshambles drummer: 'Moss was a bad influence' (Sunday November 04, 2007 12:30 AM) Yahoo.com Supermodel Kate Moss was "detrimental" to her ex-boyfriend Pete Doherty's band Babyshambles, according to drummer Adam Ficek. Moss teamed up with Doherty to write four tracks on the Babyshambles' new album Shotters Nation before the end of their romance in July - but Ficek maintains she was 'a curse' on the rockers. He says, "When Kate was with Pete that was all everybody cared about, and our music suffered. Kate was detrimental to the band. It was all about the lead singer and his girlfriend, not the rest of the band. "Since she's gone we've surprised ourselves at how well we're doing. Pete's much more focused now. There's no way we would be invited to play at MTV with the likes of Snoop Dogg if we were how we were when Kate was still around."
November 4, 200717 yr Well I don't think either of them did any favours for each other. Naturally they're not 'media-hogging' all that much thesedays which is a good sign. And if the quality of music is improving then all the better :D
