Now that we are into festival news, Bob Dylan is due to give a free 'concert for peace' in the Basque resort of San Sebastian as part of the city's Jazz Festival on 11 Jul. Ramon Etxezarreta, San Sebastian's councillor for cultural affairs, has confirmed that Dylan is on board for the event. The concert will celebrate the permanent ceasefire announced by Basque separatist group ETA last month, though the Europa Press news agency says that Dylan has requested that his concert does not become an overtly political event.
