With every passing day we come closer to another Bob Dylan tour announcement. Over the last weeks, not many rumors were flying around in the Bob-world about where Bob is heading in Spring 2025.
There were 2 main rumors:
US Tour including the Midwest (US Rumor)
Japan (German Rumor)
Yesterday, another piece of the puzzle dropped on X:
According to older tweets on this persons feed, she(?) works at the now-called Adler Theatre in Davenport, Iowa.
Checking out this theatre, it looks exactly like the kind of venue Bob would choose to play at these days.
This would fit perfectly into the" “Midwest-rumor” and could mean, that a tour announcement might only be days away now.
Whenever new tour dates drop, you’ll read about it here, first! :-)
Jim Keltner joins Ringo Starr and friends!

According to this Billboard article:
“As announced Tuesday (Jan. 14), the former Beatle’s upcoming concert special at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium will air this spring on CBS and Paramount+, with some of the proceeds benefiting wildfire relief amid the ongoing crisis in the Los Angeles area.
Ringo & Friends at the Ryman, the two-hour special will find Starr performing songs from his new country album, Look Up, which arrived Jan. 10. He’ll be joined by a star-studded list of friends on stage, including Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle — both of whom collaborated on the drummer’s new LP — as well as Sheryl Crow, Rodney Crowell, Mickey Guyton, Emmylou Harris, Sarah Jarosz, Jamey Johnson, Brenda Lee, Larkin Poe, The War and Treaty, and Jack White”
..... I have been a fan of Bob's since I was 12 years old . That would be 60's years. In those years I have only seen him perform twice. I am way overdue and suffer greatly because of it. I am always on the lookout for him to appear in the Northeast US again.
I have unknowingly missed him several times in the recent 15 years. There are several venues near me that Bob would love , just like this Theater in Iowa. It is a perfect fit - just beautiful from the photo.
Bob seems to be an endless bundle of energy , who cares about his Fans. I hope he never stops - at least not until I get to spend another few hours alone with him in a crowded room of his loyalty Fans.
Waiting for the next " rumor ". Thank you very much for the update and all you do. ❤️
