After finishing his Australasian tour Dylan started to tour the United States performing fourteen shows throughout late April and early May. Shortly after completing the spring tour Dylan recorded his 31st studio album Love and Theft. [5]
Dylan toured Europe in late June and throughout July performing at several music festivals including Roskilde Festival in Denmark. [6]
