Bob Dylan [ tickets ] has rolled out the itinerary for his recently announced fall tour, and has tapped Kings of Leon [ tickets ], Foo Fighters [ tickets ] and The Raconteurs [ tickets ] to rotate through the opening slot.

The outing gets underway Oct. 11 in Vancouver, British Columbia, and is scheduled to hit two dozen cities by mid-November, including two-night stands in San Francisco, Boston and the Chicago area. Details are shown below.

Kings of Leon [ tickets ] will open from the tour's kick-off through Oct. 28; Foo Fighters [ tickets ], who will perform an acoustic set, will be on board from Oct. 29 through Nov. 8; and The Raconteurs [ tickets ] have signed on for Nov. 9 through the tour's planned Nov. 18 finale in Philadelphia, according to Dylan's newly revamped website.

The fall run comes in the wake of Dylan's current summer outing, which is touching down at minor-league ballparks throughout the US, and features opening sets from both Elana James and Jimmie Vaughan.

On Tuesday (8/29), Dylan offers up "Modern Times," his first new studio set since 2001's "Love and Theft." This disc, which is the folk legend's 44th album, features 10 new Dylan originals he recorded last winter with his touring band: guitarists Stu Kimball and Denny Freeman, multi-instrumentalist Donnie Herron, bassist Tony Garnier and drummer George Recile. Dylan sang and played keyboards, guitars, and harmonica.

Joining Dylan and his band on the ballpark tour are guitarist Jimmie Vaughan--brother of the late Stevie Ray Vaughan--featuring veteran roadhouse singer Lou Ann Barton and Austin-based musician Junior Brown, who plays "a demonic hybrid 'guit-steel' instrument, a combination 6-string electric guitar and pedal steel guitar, a device he cooked up one night in a dream," according to a press release.
