Peter Doherty was due to appear on the Transmissions Stage on Saturday 7th July, however his team have just posted this message about the singer not being able to perform after he checked into a rehab clinic in Thailand to deal with personal health issues:
"Peter is terribly upset not to be able to make this year's T in the Park as it is always a great experience and one of his favourite events on the festival circuit. The decision that he couldn't do it was not one taken lightly but the important reasons preventing his attendance this year are clear. Peter has entered a facility to deal with pressing medical issues. We hope you wish him well on this major step he has taken and wish T in the Park as successful an event as ever."
