On Sunday, his people announced added dates in Eau Claire, Wis., Omaha, Sioux City and Davenport, Iowa.
Bobdylan.com now lists 20 spring concerts, starting March 25 in Tulsa, where the Bob Dylan Center is located. Don’t be surprised if he doesn’t visit the museum. He never does the obvious.
He also plans to play Mankato on April 4 and Eau Claire on April 5.
Other Midwest concerts include April 1 in Omaha, April 2 in Sioux City, April 6 in Green Bay and April 8 in Davenport. The venues are mostly theater-sized.
Tickets for the newly announced concerts will go on sale on Feb. 7 while Mankato and Green Bay are already on sale.
At 83, Dylan remains a road warrior. The Minnesota native played 78 concerts in 2024, including a low-key but solid one in Somerset, Wis., with Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp.
On Monday, Willie announced his Outlaw Music Festival for 2025 featuring 34 shows —with Dylan on all dates — running from May 13 in Phoenix to Sept. 19 at Alpine Valley in East Troy, Wis. Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at OulawMusicFestival.com and ticketmaster.com.
Dylan’s name has been bandied about the past two months because of the biopic “A Complete Unknown” chronicling his career from 1961-65. The film, which opened on Christmas, is nominated for best picture at the Oscars while Timothée Chalamet in the title role is up for best actor, Edward Norton for supporting actor as Pete Seeger and Monica Barbaro for supporting actress as Joan Baez.
Highlights for March 6-12 include Johnny Mathis, Morgan Wade, Keri Noble, MC Lyte, Helmet and Bobby Rush with North Mississippi Allstars.
