Set lists[edit]

As Dylan was still playing exclusively folk music live, much of the material performed during this tour was written pre-1965. Each show was divided into two halves, with seven songs performed during the first, and eight during the second.[1] The set consisted of two songs from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, three from The Times They Are a-Changin', three from Another Side of Bob Dylan, a comic-relief concert staple; "If You Gotta Go, Go Now", issued as a single in Europe, and six songs off his then-recent album, Bringing It All Back Home, including the second side in its entirety.
