1997 concert tour by Bob Dylan From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Never Ending Tour is the popular name for Bob Dylan's endless touring schedule since June 7, 1988.[1][2]
The Never Ending Tour 1997 started in Japan in February. The tour was made up of eleven dates including three in Tokyo and two in Osaka.[3]
Dylan travelled to North America to perform six concerts in Canada and nineteen concerts in the United States in the spring, including a performance at the Memphis In May festival on May 2. The tour ended in Huntsville, Alabama the following day.[4]
The tour was interrupted in 1997 when Dylan was forced to cancel dates after suffering a serious medical issue in May. Columbia Records announced he was being hospitalized for a potentially fatal chest infection, histoplasmosis.[5] Dylan continued to tour the United States throughout August.[6]
In early October Dylan and the band travelled to the United Kingdom to perform three concerts in England and one in Wales. These were the only performances in Europe in 1997.[7]
Dylan then returned to the United States to perform more concerts. The tour started in Starkville, Mississippi and came to an end in San Jose, California.[8] Shortly after completing this tour, Dylan set out on tour again, this time performing in small club venues.[9]
