Arctic Monkeys have told Zane Lowe what songs they won’t be playing during live shows in the future.
If you’re going to Reading or Leeds next weekend then you’re unlikely to hear classics Mardy Bum, Teddy Picker or Fake Tales of San Francisco- according to the band.

In an exclusive interview for MTV Two Alex Turner and Jamie Cook were asked about the live shows. Of those three tracks they both said: “Done” or “dead.”
Singer Alex added: “You’ve got to move on.”
But rest assured the Sheffield four-piece will still play some big hits. Turner told us: “I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor for instance… Its fun to play like, I buzz off playing that every night. That’s not done.”
Arctic Monkeys headline Reading and Leeds festivals next weekend and also play Brixton Academy on Wednesday 26 August.
Watch MTV Two Monday night at 9pm to see the full interview. And check mtv.co.uk on Monday for exclusive live performances from the band.
