Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp Team for Return to U.S. Ballparks

Early start times, free admission for kids at family-friendly gigs

Previous Next
Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp and Willie Nelson The Bob Dylan Show All Tickets $68

WHAT TO EXPECT:
See three music legends in an all-American setting this summer when Dylan, Mellencamp and Nelson bring their triple bill to minor-league ballparks in small towns. "We'd figured we'd had enough of that," says Dylan, who did similar tours in 2004 and 2005 with Nelson. "But there was evidently a demand for those shows in this setting." The general-admission gigs will also be family-friendly affairs — the music will start at 5:30 p.m., and kids under 14 will get in for free if they come with an adult.

THE LAST TIME AROUND:
August 2008: Bob Dylan Visits the Sixties and the Present at First-Ever Brooklyn Show
September 2008: Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews, John Mellencamp, Neil Young Lead Farm Aidís Northeast Invasion
