According to website boblinks.com, the US music legend Bob Dylan will sing at an international university in HCM City on April 10.

Specifically, it is the RMIT University. However, RMIT has not confirmed the information yet. Bob Dylan’s official website doesn’t name Vietnam in his upcoming Asian tour.

Though boblinks.com is not the official site of Bob Dylan, all information about the singer and his tours is accurately updated. According to the site, Dylan’s April tour will go from Taiwan to China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore and Australia.

If Dylan comes to Vietnam to sing, it will not be his official show. However, it is still an event if he comes to Vietnam this April.

Seven years ago, it was announced that Dylan would come to Vietnam to attend the World Peace Music Awards but the event was finally organized in the US.

Bob Dylan, 70, has been a major figure in music for five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s when he was an informal chronicler, and an apparently reluctant figurehead, of social unrest. A number of his songs such as “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “The Times They Are a-Changin’” became anthems for the US civil rights and anti-war movements. His early lyrics incorporated a variety of political, social and philosophical, as well as literary influences.

Dylan performs with guitar, keyboards, and harmonica. Backed by a changing line-up of musicians, he has toured steadily since the late 1980s on what has been dubbed the Never Ending Tour. His accomplishments as a recording artist and performer have been central to his career, but his greatest contribution is generally considered to be his songwriting.

Since 1994, Dylan has published three books of drawings and paintings, and his work has been exhibited in major art galleries. As a songwriter and musician, Dylan has received numerous awards over the years including Grammys, Golden Globes, and Academy Awards; he has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2008, a Bob Dylan Pathway was opened in the singer’s honor in his birthplace of Duluth, Minnesota. The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2008 awarded him a special citation for “his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power.”
