US rock legend Bob Dylan announces extra UK shows
The good news is that the 81-year-old singer-songwriter – famous for hits such as Like a Rolling Stone and Positively 4th Street – is lining up three further UK dates after eight of the nine originally scheduled, including two at Glasgow’s Scottish Event Campus Armadillo at the end of next month, sold out.
The bad news is that none are this side of the border.
The handiest of his additional shows for Scots is at Manchester’s O2 Apollo on Wednesday, November 2, the others being in Bournemouth and Oxford.
