ROD Stewart's outdoor gig in Aberdeen was postponed on Wednesday night due to bad weather.
The 74-year-old star was due to play at the AECC but organisers said they had to reschedule because of the high winds and rain.
The concert has been rescheduled to July 16.
The gig promoters said: "Sir Rod and his team always believe the show must go on and this decision has not been taken lightly. However, due to the high winds and bad weather it would not be safe to go ahead with this evening’s concert.
