Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan are taking their music back to the ballparks this summer, on a 22-city trek to minor league stadiums across the country. They'll be joined this time by Willie's Farm Aid co-founder John Mellencamp. Nelson and Dylan first toured minor-league parks in 2004, and again in 2005. The upcoming tour will mark only the second time since the mid-'80s that the two icons have shared a concert stage with the 'Small Town' singer. The Dylan-Nelson-Mellenamp triple play gets underway July 2, hitting GCS Ballpark, the home of the Gateway Grizzlies, in Sauget, Ill.
Tickets for the ballpark concert series will go on sale May 2, at $67.50 per ticket. Children under 15 will get in free with a paying adult.

I love Willie and Bob, I hope they will have a sell
out crowd. I remember the glory days of the 60's
and the music of both Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson
were great then and I'm sure it will be so this time.
Wish I could be there to hear them, but I sure will
be in the market for a CD or DVD! I like Mellencamp
also.
