DYLAN’S OUTLAW BLUES ‘24 IN MANSFIELD: HE USED TO BE DISGUSTED ….plus Lukas Nelson, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, and Celisse. with FAB PIX! by Harold Lepidus OUTLAW MUSIC FESTIVAL 2024 - XFINITY CENTER, MANSFIELD, MA, JULY 2, 2024 Willie Nelson’s Family (featuring his son Lukas, standing in for his recuperating father) Bob Dylan and his Band Robert Plant & Alison Krauss  Celisse    This concert sort of snuck up on me, just as the surprise announcement that this tour was even happening back in February did.

(Please forgive any grammatical or syntax errors. I am abandoning the article now, as is.) Bob Dylan and the Band - The 1974 Live Recordings is a 27 CD box set of whatever surviving soundboards exist in the Sony cupboards, from Dylan’s “comeback” trek across North America, then known as “Tour ‘74.” 40 shows in six weeks, sometimes two a day/night - a mix of Dylan with the Band, Dylan solo, and separate sets by the Band. Each of almost all of Dyla...
