Bob Dylan live in Cortona ( Italy) in August? First rumors

Two super-names are circulating among the Italian journalists about the mysterious new festival to be held in Cortona (Tuscany) in the month of August: Bob Dylan and Umberto Eco. The replacement of the old Tuscan Sun Festival which will be moved to Florence, will be called 'In Tuscany-Cortona Art Festival', will be (partly) presented at a press conference this morning just in the Etruscan town.
Meanwhile, moving the first two scenarios, one of the singer-symbol of 60 years Bob Dylan, still active live, and Umberto Eco, just to reiterate the fact that the festival will live not only of music, but it will be a mix of arts and culture.

Due super-nomi stanno circolando tra i giornalisti italiani in merito al nuovo misterioso festival che si dovrebbe tenere a Cortona nel prossimo mese di Agosto: Bob Dylan e Umberto Eco. Il sostituto del vecchio Tuscan Sun Festival che sarà spostato a Firenze, si chiamerà 'In Toscana-Cortona art festival', sarà (in parte) presentato in una conferenza stampa questa mattina proprio nella città etrusca.
Intanto circolano le prime due ipotesi, quella del cantautore-simbolo degli anni 60, ancora attivo dal vivo, e quella di Umberto Eco, tanto per ribadire il fatto che il festival non vivrà solo di musica, ma sarà un mix fra arti e cultura.

This, my friends, is a proper rumor.

Hm, Lucca, Cortona... that is not good enough for me. Oh Bob, you're so far away from me. You're so far away from me. You're so far I just can't see...
I hope there will be some concerts a little bit up north as well, somewhere closer to Germany.

What about the South American tour? Will they add any more dates or is that it?

If Bob won't come to you, you go to Bob.
Though I do think he'll venture a bit further North than that.

Go Greece go!
Come on Bob , i need you here pal ! If you go to Italy don't forget Greece ...

Exactly!

I am cheering for you Tragos! Keep thinking this way. C'mon Bob, Greece!

Here's a wholly totally improper rumor from the front page for y'all:

You know that Shooter's gonna be all over this one.

oh bumbershoot rumours. oh My! o My~ well if that becomes a reality..ill be there again.. *i love seattle~~) and to be with my dylan friends again will be Wonderful~ . I wish rumours didnt have to be put up to torment us with no substance. if its false my lower lip will quiver...honest.

Nice too how they post 'unconfirmed' on the turkey band, but not on the real Bob.

How delightful. The only North American rumor is a rehash of the 2010 line up for that venue exactly. I really doubt it's the same bands again. I wish when people would make up rumors they tried a little harder. East coast dates will be the last ones he does for the year I can almost bet. Which thoroughly depresses me. Looks like Europe June, July and August. I hope the North American is that extensive lol.

He loves us!
Three months seems like a mighty long time, though. To my knowledge, he's never played here in August.

hah, yes, i looove the 60 years figure. i don't know italian but i gather they are either a decade off his career length or his age....

Actually, if you try to read the Italian text, they are talking about the 1960s.

ah...that makes more sense.

That'll do just nicely..
**Checks bank balance, rubs out unessential dates in diary and awaits Bob's Itenary for my summer**

Ready and willing.

Ha ha ha

No no no; I know this is just false/older dates as it's the exact same lineup as 2010.

Nope, never

I'm willing to bet on the usual June/July tour.
