Bob Dylan has bought a luxury hideaway in the Scottish Highlands, which isn't really that interesting now I come to think of it, but it does mean he'll be able to catch Elton John's planned gig at the Tullock Stadium in Inverness, due to take place in July. The latest John gig at a football stadium (Tullock is the home of Scottish Premier League side Inverness Caledonian Thistle), the concert will take place as part of the Highland 2007 cultural festival, with 17,000 tickets expected to be sold. Profits from the 15 Jul gig will go towards the club. Their chairman Alan Savage told reporters: "I'm extremely proud that our club has been able to bring north a global icon and host such a superb occasion. The whole area will be buzzing at the news. It should be a real money spinner and all our income from the concert will go to strengthening manager Charlie Christie's football budget for next season."
