Thousands of Cubans flock to 'peace concert'
Hundreds of thousands of Cubans flocked to sprawling Revolution Plaza yesterday for an open-air ``peace concert'' headlined by Colombian rocker Juanes, an event criticized by some Cuban-Americans who say the performers were lending support to the island's communist government simply by showing up.
Cuba will host an international hip hop symposium from Aug. 17-21 that will be attended by musicians from Canada, the United States, France, Haiti and Colombia, state media reported Sunday, citing organizers.
