On June 29th, 1997, Lisa and I attended a concert at the Marcus Amphitheater during Summerfest, Milwaukee's lakefront music festival. We watched a very pregnant Cyndi Lauper open the night, which was a nice bit of nostalgia, and then the great Tina Turner took the stage.
Here's the setlist from that day:
- Whatever You Want
- Do What You Do
- River Deep, Mountain High
- Missing You
- In Your Wildest Dreams
- GoldenEye
- Private Dancer
- We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)
- Let's Stay Together
- Undercover Agent for the Blues
- I Can't Stand the Rain
- Steamy Windows
- Givin' It Up for Your Love
- Better Be Good to Me
- Addicted to Love
- The Best
- What's Love Got to Do With It
- Proud Mary
- Nutbush City Limits
- On Silent Wings
- Something Beautiful Remains
- Ballad of Cleo & Joe
- I Drove All Night
- Time After Time
- You Don't Know
- Sisters of Avalon
- Money Changes Everything
Tina Turner died today at age 83. There's nothing I can write about her life that hasn't been documented better elsewhere: her rise to fame, her abusive marriage, her time in the entertainment wilderness, her magnificent comeback.
So I will merely say this: thank you for a heckuva show. RIP.
