Bob Dylan is hitting the road with Mark Knopfler this year but so far the dates only include the upper Midwest and east coast of America.

Bob and Mark toured Europe together in 2011. The North American tour will coincide with new albums from both artists. Knopfler will release the double CD set ‘Privateering’ in September. Dylan’s yet-to-be titled album will also be released in September.
Knopfler was only performing a couple of Dire Straits songs per show. ‘Brothers In Arms’ and ‘So Far Away’ were in his setlist each night but Bob juggled it up for the audience.
