UPDATED: Is Bob Dylan set to play London's Barfly?!
UPDATE: The ticket link is gone so, sadly, Dylan's definitely not playing Barfly.

Is it a mistake? A joke? A total mindblowing surprise?! Either way, Bandsintown have listed Bob Dylan for a show at London's Barfly on 18 June.
His official Facebook page is showing the listing, and TicketsABC have a link for the show. Might be best you don't buy any just yet though.
When we rang the Barfly, we were told "As far as [we] know, there's no Bob Dylan show."
While it doesn't rule it out totally, it seems like they should have some idea what's going on.
That checks out, with another show already scheduled... but then, like Prince's surprise gigs, you'd expect a smaller act to get bumped.
Some people are claiming to have already bought tickets, while others reckon it's a bug.
Refunds can be obtained now from TicketABC.
The Barfly also said: "Please be aware that this event is not taking place at The Barfly (but loads of other great events are). We are looking into how this happened. If anyone has any information please do let us know! Perhaps the answer is blowing in the wind. Kind regards, Team Barfly!"
