-Billboard

Ending months of speculation as to whether he will or wont, Bob Dylan will physically accept his Nobel Prize for Literature this weekend (April 1-2), when he arrives in Sweden to perform at a pair of Stockholm dates.

Professor Sara Danius, permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy, confirmed the spokesman of his generation's involvement in a  on Wednesday (Mar. 29), entitled "Good News About Dylan." "The Swedish Academy is very much looking forward to the weekend and will show up at one of the performances," she writes. "Please note that no Nobel Lecture will be held. The Academy has reason to believe that a taped version will be sent at a later point."
