They are to have a concert in Warsaw.

This year, Agnieszka? This is sounding like their "Blue Alert" performance in 2007. I don't remember the exact month, but it seems close enough.

I now have inside info that the logistics are being worked out for a performance in Moncton, NB. in May. This jives with the comment by Leonard that the tour will begin in the Maritimes (the Maritimes means New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island). Only Moncton, Saint John and Halifax would be possibilities. See my post from last night referencing the article with LC's comment.

just wanted to point out to Steve Wilcox that Bob Dylan never started his tours here in the Maritimes....sorry, at least not the last two tours anyway....

Good idea Daka - I keep logging in every couple of hours just in case, so hope ticking the box will shortcut a bit, but I'm sure I will still keep accessing the site anyway just in case. I'm not going to take any chances !

Another one emerges from lurkdom....

So after living in Canada for a couple of decades, and patiently awaiting a chance to see Leonard live, I am about to move to a whole new continent... A place where it is very unlikely Leonard will visit.

I think this tour comes just in time for me, in fact I am sitting here nervously awaiting the Easter Canada dates, to make sure that I don't leave the country before that! That would be devastating.

This is why I appreciate all the 'hints' and 'insider tips from fellow forumites!

Cheers

I'd like to point out . . .

On the North American leg of his 1997 tour (after a stint in Japan), Dylan's first North American dates were 6 shows in St. John's, Moncton, Halifax, Fredericton and Saint John.

On his Summer/Fall tour of 2002 (which truly began in Worchester, Mass.) Dylan then immediately crossed the border and played Halifax, Moncton and Saint John.

Yeah totally agree with you about the age thing, sure we wont be let down by leonard, hope i will be able to make one of his concerts god willing, seen him in concert once and need to again, he has amazing talent used to have his poem books back in the 70s but have lost them over the years but never lost the feeling and passion i get listening to his music.i would hate to had lost out on never hearing of him.
