Bob and Willie: Let's Play Two

According to billboard.com, Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan are going to tour baseball stadiums again:

"Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson are coming together for their second co-headlining tour of minor league baseball parks. The 27-date tour, which will also feature opening act the Greencards, kicks off May 25 at the William H. Hammond Stadium in Fort Myers, Fla. It will conclude July 12 at Midway Stadium in St. Paul, Minn.

Towards the end of the Dylan/Nelson trek, Dylan will make a previously announced appearance at Nelson's 4th of July Picnic event at the Stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas. The pair introduced the minor league concept last summer. This year, Bryan Adams and Def Leppard are also touring minor league ballparks with their 26-date 'Rock 'N Roll Double-Header.'"

As most of you know, admitting that you like sports is Advanced, which is why I love this idea so much. Also, minor-league ballparks have a really great atmosphere. Especially on two-for-one beer night.
