Three months into the ‘‘Roll Me Away’ tour, Bob Seger — along with The Silver Bullet Band — has scheduled an additional 17 shows for the farewell trek.
Seger, 73, and company will head back to the legend’s home state of Michigan in June for two finale performances.
On June 6 and 8, the group will conclude this leg of the ‘Roll Me Away tour at Clarkston’s DTE Energy Music Theatre, just 65 kilometres north of Seger’s hometown of Detroit.
Unfortunately for fans, Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band currently have no additional plans to tour Canada; they played Vancoucer earlier this month.

Seger formed the Silver Bullet Band in 1974. The group continued to dominate North America more than 10 years after his initial success.
They’ve charted the world for years since and played for millions of fans globally. The ‘Roll Me Away’ tour celebrates nearly five decades of music — originally launched to make up for previously postponed 2017 shows.
Seger had to sit out the latter half of his 2017 Runaway Train tour due to a necessary spinal surgery (cervical laminectomy). His doctor advised him to undergo the surgery after discovering he had ruptured a disc.
“They aren’t letting me lift anything over five pounds, he told Rolling Stone. “No piano, no guitar. But as soon as the pain stops, I’ll be playing again.”
Seger has since held up to that promise by giving it his all on the road.
Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band commenced the Travelin’ Man tour in late November and have toured extensively since then.
