Woah! Dylan, Nelson, Mellencamp Coming to Durham

Grayson over at the Indy sends this our way. It looks like Mr. Bobby Dylan is coming to Durham Bulls Athletic Park on July 28th. The ongoing Raleigh/Durham concert battle continues.

Tickets go on sale May 9th. $67.50 gets you Dylan, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp. Show starts at 5:30pm. His 33rd studio album Together Through Life comes out next week, I’ll plead the fifth as to whether I’ve heard it yet but say that its very bluesy and groovy.

The Durham Bulls today announced The Bob Dylan Show is coming to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park on Tuesday, July 28th. Along with fellow troubadour Willie Nelson, this summer The Bob Dylan Show will also feature John Mellencamp, marking just the second time in the past 24 years that these three music legends have shared the concert stage.

All concert tickets are priced at $67.750 and are general admission, allowing fans to grab a seat in the stands or find a place to watch from the field. Tickets will go on sale May 9th at 10:00 AM and will be available at the Durham Bulls Box Office, by phone at (919) 956-BULL or online at www.durhambulls.com. Children 14 and under get in free with each adult ticket holder. Showtime is 5:30 PM and gates open at 5:00 PM. There is no baseball game on the day of the show.

Since first embarking on a tour of minor league baseball parks in 2004, over a half-million fans have come together to spend a night under the stars. With free admittance for children*, these tours draw a multi-generational fan base rarely seen on the concert circuit, causing one reporter to describe it as, “more like a backyard party than a rock concert.” The Boston Globe ranked the tour amongst “the most relaxed, enjoyable shows of the year. “You Can’t Beat Fun At The Old Ballpark,” came a headline from the Chicago Sun Times.
