KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON - BOB DYLAN 1994 by Olof Björner

5. THE NEVER-ENDING TOUR CONTINUES

  
5.1 Introduction
  -----------------

  1994 marked the 7th year of the Never-Ending Tour! The usual late year rumours
  in 1993 had it that Dylan would play Japan in early 1995, something he had
  wanted to do for a long time, and then finally take that long well deserved
  break. As we all know the tour of Japan finally came about and the break
  didn't. In fact 1994 is the year with most shows, 104, during the entire
  Never-Ending tour.

  The shorter format with 14-15 songs established during the joint tour with
  Santana was maintained through out the year. Typical show length was 110
  minutes.

  The 1994 part of The Never-Ending Tour consisted of five new "legs":

  1  February         Japan           14 shows
  2  April-May        US              25 shows
  3  July             Europe          17 shows
  4  August           US              15 shows
  5  October-November US              33 shows
