Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan join up this fall

The road could get lonely out there for Elvis Costello, as he heads out this fall for his first solo gigs in 12 years (according to LiveDaily). So, its no wonder the famously bespectacled artist is buddying up with Steve Nieve, entire symphony orchestras and, for 13 dates, Bob Dylan. With respective retrospectives on the way, it makes sense for Dylan and Costello to enter prime touring season hand-in-hand. A deluxe edition of the latters My Aim is True premiers on Sept. 11, while Columbia Records gets ready to release Dylan, a 51-track, three-disc career-spanning compilation.
