The Never Ending Tour is the popular name for Bob Dylan's endless touring schedule since June 7, 1988.[1] [2]

Tour

The 2004 tour started with a spring tour of the United States.[3] Dylan performed several residencies during the tour. Including

Dylan's European summer tour started on June 18 with a concert in Cardiff, Wales.[28] Two days later Dylan performed in Finsbury Park, London, England as part of the Fleadh Festival.[29] Dylan only performed two dates in England, the second in Newcastle was performed two days later. He then went on to perform two shows in Glasgow, Scotland. One at the SE&CC and the second at Barrowland Ballroom.[30] This show was added due to the ticket demands at the previous night's concert at the SE&CC. The tour finished 31 days after it started on July 18 in Caminha, Portugal.

Dylan went on to perform a Baseball Park tour of the Eastern United States. The concerts were a double-bill with Willie Nelson.[31] Then on October 13 Dylan commenced the final leg of the tour performing in College sports venues across the United States. The tour started on October 13 in San Francisco and ended in Allston, Massachusetts, on November 21.
