ARCTIC Monkeys have cancelled a show this week, days ahead of their scheduled Glasgow gig.
The Sheffield rockers are set to play at Bellahouston Park in the city's Southside on Sunday, June 25.
On Monday they announced on Twitter that lead singer Alex Turner has laryngitis and the planned Dublin show will not go ahead.
It is not known yet whether their Glasgow gig will go ahead.
The Glasgow tour date would be the only Scottish stop on the tour, with support from The Hives and The Mysterines.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
