LateRooms.com - Bob Dylan and Mark Knopfler to Perform in Paris

    PARIS, FRANCE, September 16, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Veteran singer-songwriters Mark Knopfler and Bob Dylan are heading to Paris next month for a show at the city's Bercy venue.
 
Former Dire Straits frontman Knopfler is supporting Dylan on his current European tour, which is due to call at the French capital on Monday October 17th.
 
The two performers are set to play at cities across the continent during the run of gigs, which will get underway in Dublin on Sunday October 6th and finish in Zurich on Wednesday November 16th.
 
Dylan is widely considered to be one of the most influential figures in popular music and culture, with early songs such as Blowin' in the Wind becoming anthems for the civil rights movement in the US.
 
His latest tour comes after the release last year of The Original Mono Recordings, comprising reproductions of Dylan's first eight long-playing albums, spanning his eponymously titled debut in 1962 to John Wesley Harding in 1967.
 
Although Dire Straits split up in the mid-1990s, Knopfler has continued to record solo albums such as 2009's Get Lucky, which features Border Reiver, Hard Shoulder and other tracks.
