WHY IT MATTERS
BUCKET LIST — Dylan's 85 and still routing a full summer amphitheater run, not a handful of seated theater dates with an intermission. The support lineup mixing Lucinda Williams with Brittney Spencer says more about his taste than most legacy acts booking the same classic rock rotation they've used since 2015.
