Bob Seger extends farewell tour


Bob Seger has extended his farewell tour with the addition of 12 more shows this spring.

The rocker’s current leg wraps up in mid-March and, following a 6-week break, Seger is scheduled to perform 13 concerts that end with a two-night stand in his Detroit hometown in early June.

The Travelin Man: The Final Tour is named after a song from his 1975 album, “Beautiful Loser.”

A Bullet Club pre-sale for the newly-added shows begins Tuesday, February 19, with general public tickets going on sale Saturday, February 23; for complete details, visit bobseger.com.

Seger’s most recent studio album is 2017’s “I Knew You When”; recorded in Nashville and Detroit and produced by the singer, the project – which features a mix of original tracks and covers of tunes by Lou Reed and Leonard Cohen - peaked at No. 25 on the US Billboard 200.

Last fall, Seger released a collection of vintage material on the compilation “Heavy Music: The Complete Cameo Recordings 1966-1967.”

The package presents the series of singles Seger issued with his band The Last Heard, one of several local Detroit groups the rocker worked with prior to his 1969 breakthrough with the Bob Seger System and the hit, “Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man.”
