Saw it on the news last night. Tickets are $49.50 and they go on sale July 22nd @ 10am!

I think the date of the show is 9/5, but don't quote me...

STAY TUNED!

Yes. Flippin'. Way.

He's doing a tour of minor league baseball stadiums and someone in Fort Wayne got their head out of their ass long enough to realize this would be a good thing.

I'm guessing Matt is taking the whole clan to this show. You should have Ruby get autographed!

Which radio station is sponsoring the show?

I think Stage Banter is the sponsoring radio station...


Seriously though, I've seen Bob's minor league stadium tour (this is the third year for it), and it's a pretty creative and awesome tour concept. It's all general admission, kids under 12 are free, you basically can bring in your blanket and squat anywhere you want in the outfield (or the stands, if you prefer). It feels like the 1950s and you are seeing the Big Bopper with Richie Havens. If the weather is nice it should be a magical evening.

that is soooo incredibly cool that it can't be true.

this will make up for the last time I "saw" him at ISU. I either forgot or broke my glasses before the show.....so I couldn't even see the old guy.

excited.

Think Bob Dylan will make it through the performance or die halfway through?
