Three days of Dylan

The legendary Bob Dylan is coming to town for a three-night stop at Chicago's Cadillac Palace Theatre, 151 W. Randolph St., Chicago. Dylan's current tour features several multinight “residencies,” and the set lists from recent dates have drawn heavily from his work of the past 15-20 years, most of which has been excellent. (Don't worry, longtime fans: A few classic tracks from the 1960s and 1970s — “Blowin' in the Wind,” “Tangled Up in Blue” — have been performed, too.) Tickets start at $52.50 at ticketmaster.com. 8 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 9
