Set Lists

As Dylan was still playing exclusively folk music live, much of the material performed during this tour was pre-1965, although several songs performed had been recently recorded for Dylan's then-recent album, Bringing It All Back Home. Each show was divided into two halves, with seven songs performed during the first, and eight during the second.[1]

Fist half
  1. "The Times They Are a-Changin'"
  2. "To Ramona"
  3. "Gates of Eden"
  4. "If You Gotta Go, Go Now (Or Else You Got to Stay All Night)"
  5. "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)"
  6. "Love Minus Zero/No Limit"
  7. "Mr. Tambourine Man"
Second Half
  1. "Talkin' World War III Blues"
  2. "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"
  3. "With God on Our Side"
  4. "She Belongs to Me"
  5. "It Ain't Me, Babe"
  6. "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll"
  7. "All I Really Want to Do"
  8. "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"

Set list per Olof Bjorner.[1]

Aftermath

Joan Baez accompanied him on the tour, but she was never invited to play with him in concert. In fact, they wouldn't tour together again until 1975. After this tour, Dylan was hailed as a hero of folk music, but two months later, at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, he would alienate his fans and go electric.
