Bob Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter, artist and writer. He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when he was both a chronicler and reluctant figurehead of social unrest. Early songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" became anthems for the Civil Rights Movement and anti-war movement. Leaving his initial base in the American folk music revival, Dylan's six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone" altered the range of popular music in 1965. His mid-1960s recordings, backed by rock musicians, reached the top end of the United States music charts while also attracting denunciation and criticism from others in the folk movement.

The Never Ending Tour commenced on June 7, 1988, and Dylan has played roughly 100 dates a year for the entirety of the 1990s and 2000s—a heavier schedule than most performers who started out in the 1960s. By May 2013, Dylan and his band had played more than 2,500 shows, anchored by long-time bassist Tony Garnier, multi-instrumentalist Donnie Herron, and guitarist Charlie Sexton.

1974	Bob Dylan and The Band Tour	January 3 – February 14, 1974	40
This tour reunited Dylan with The Band on stage after the release of the Dylan's Band-backed Planet Waves album. This was a high-profile comeback for both sides of the bill. While virtually all the songs here were familiar and might be considered 'hits'. At the beginning of the tour, a few songs from Planet Waves were performed in concert, but as the tour wore on, these songs gradually disappeared from the set list. By the end, only "Forever Young" would remain.

For the tour, Dylan assembled an eight piece band, and was also accompanied by three backing singers. The 1978 tour grossed more than $20 million, and Dylan acknowledged to the Los Angeles Times that he had some debts to pay off because "I had a couple of bad years. I put a lot of money into the movie, built a big house ... and it costs a lot to get divorced in California". The live recording of the fourth and fifth shows (of eight) in Tokyo was released as the double album Bob Dylan at Budokan. It was on this tour that Dylan found Jesus and became a born-again Christian.
1979–80	Gospel Tour	November 1, 1979 – May 21, 1980	79
On June 15, Dylan released the album Street-Legal, which received poor reviews from most American critics. Performances on his world tour also received negative reviews. The physical demands of touring were also taking a toll on the artist.

2010s

2010

Date	Venue	Location
February 11, 2010	The White House	Washington, D.C., United States
Dylan delivered a jaw-dropping acoustic rendition of his 1963 civil rights anthem, "The Times They Are a-Changin'" and then walked to the front row to shake President Obama's hand. It was the first time they ever met, even though Dylan (in an extremely uncharacteristic move) thoroughly praised Obama during the 2008 campaign. The performance was part of A Celebration of Music From the Civil Rights Movement.

2011

Date	Venue	Location
February 13, 2011	Staples Center	Los Angeles, California, United States
Less than a week before the 53rd Grammys take place, the award ceremony has announced that Bob Dylan make his fifth-ever Grammy appearance. He also performed with Mumford & Sons and The Avett Brothers. The banjo-heavy back-up music to his rendition of "Maggie's Farm" showed that his songs can still sound fresh and new, even decades after they were first released.

2012

Date	Venue	Location
January 12, 2012	Hollywood Palladium	Los Angeles, California, United States
This performance was part of the Critics' Choice Movie Award honoring Martin Scorsese and his contribution to media. Dylan and his band were introduced by Olivia Harrison and then performed "Blind Willie McTell", which was used in Scorsese's PBS documentary series The Blues.

2014

Date	Venue	Location
November 23, 2014	Academy of Music	Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Playing to an audience of one (Fredrik Wikingsson), Dylan and his band abandoned their usual repertoire and played Buddy Holly's "Heartbeat", Fats Domino's "Blueberry Hill", Chuck Willis' "It's Too Late (She's Gone)" and a blues jam. The incredible concert was part of an ongoing Swedish film series Experiment Ensam (Experiment Alone), where people experience things completely alone that are usually reserved for large crowds. Dylan's set list has been remarkably rigid over the past year, centering largely around songs released in the past 15 years. Covers are extremely rare, so Wikingsson was delighted when the show began with "Heartbeat". Wikingsson's private Dylan show was filmed by eight cameras, and a 15-minute documentary of the event was published on YouTube on December 15, 2014.

2015

Date	Venue	Location
May 19, 2015	Ed Sullivan Theater	New York City, United States
For the final scheduled musical guest in David Letterman's Late Show history, the retiring host welcomed Bob Dylan, who he considers "the greatest songwriter of modern times". Dylan, making a rare late-night television appearance, performed "The Night We Called It a Day" a single off his Sinatra-inspired 2015 LP Shadows in the Night. Dylan last visited Letterman in November 1993, just months after the Late Show launched. While fans likely hoped for a more popular selection from the Dylan songbook, the jazz standard fit perfectly with the reflective mood of the evening. Dylan crooned just 24 hours before the curtain closes on Letterman's Late Show after 22 years and a career in late-night television that spans 33 years.
