Okay okay... There's something about that photo...
Besides seeing Ike and Tina Turner open for the Stones in 1969, I was at Live Aid in Philly in 1985 and Mick and Tina's set was a highlight...

Tuna Turner for that matter...
I was down the docks today and saw a ton a tuna if that helps.........
I saw Ike buying pike... And he had bass.
and it was right about that time... a fight broke out at the local chip shop
And Tommy Tune and Charlie The Tuna were right in the middle of it...
but Tina was nowhere to be found... love may have had something to do with it...
I did manage to find a pair of Tuna turners..........but still no Tina......

Maybe an interesting Tina story to some of you. I was a pretty wild gambler in the 80's. 84 I think she had just hit it big again but the money wasn't yet rolling, so she was still a Vegas act, albeit a big one. Anyway, tickets were approx. $100 each - so I had just won a few thou on a sports event and put $400 on the wheel for 3 0f us to see Tina and won - so we saw her at what I think was her hungriest and most satisfying peak - incredible show. I think Tina is one of the coolest in the business.
