Bob Dylan will tour the UK this coming October, with support coming from Dire Straits veteran Mark Knopfler.
The legendary songwriter will begin the six-date arena tour with two shows at the Glasgow Braehead Arena on the 8th and 9th of October. The jaunt will then move on the Manchester Evening News Arena a day later, followed by stops in Cardiff and Nottingham before the curtain is brought down at the Bournemouth International Centre on October 13th.
Despite recently entering his 70th year, Dylan’s so-called ‘Never Ending Tour’ has shown no signs of easing up during the course of 2011. Beginning in April, an Asian tour marked the start of a typically busy month, which finished with a series of shows in Australia and New Zealand, while a long US tour is currently underway and will immediately precede the newly announced UK tour.
