Mellencamp has already hinted at a July/August tour to his fans, but hasn’t made any announcements of specifics. We’ve confirmed with some venue operators that the tour tentatively includes the legendary Bob Dylan — who has previously toured minor-league ballparks to great success — and the issue is whether Wilie Nelson, who is recovering from a recent illness, will be available to tour as well.
