Bob Dylan to play Nashville's Brooklyn Bowl

Bob Dylan's playing Nashville's Brooklyn Bowl -- twice.

In a move highlighting the drawing power of events at the 1,200-person capacity Music City outpost of the national Brooklyn Bowl chain, Bob Dylan -- yes, the Kennedy Center Honored, Rock and Roll, Nashville Songwriters and Songwriters Hall of Famer -- will perform in downtown Nashville on March 26 and 27, 2024.

Tickets for the two-night stop of the legend's "Rough and Rowdy Ways" World Tour are available on Mar. 8 at 10 a.m. CT.

Doors for the show open at 6 p.m., and the show will start two hours later.

There will also be no bowling all night at the venue.

Dylan, 82, last played Music City at the Ryman Auditorium in 2022.

Famously, Dylan recorded several albums in Nashville, including 1966's "Blonde On Blonde."

Important to Nashville's fundamental roots in American music, Dylan often cites the work of folk artist Woody Guthrie, bluesman Robert Johnson and the "architectural forms" of Hank Williams's country songs as intrinsic additions to his sophisticated literature, poetry, politics and philosophy-inspired lyricism, to create the architecture of countercultural pop.

In a Feb. 2015 speech, Dylan called his voluminous catalog of music -- including early 1960s antiwar and civil rights anthems "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" a series of "[Shakesperean] mystery plays" that have timelessly occupied the "fringe" of American society.

2020 saw the release of "Rough and Rowdy Ways," the performer's first album in nearly a decade. The critically acclaimed recording includes the near-17-minute Kennedy assassination rumination "Murder Most Foul."
