First! First!! First!!! Oh, the joy. Oh, the humanity. I do the happy dance. I do the jiggy jig. I fall to the floor and I知 laughing. My life is complete. I am pathetic.

GOD! She trying for the World's Longest Tour? Over 200 concerts! FAREWELL already!
Gotta be a Guiness record here some where.
Let's hope she doesn't team up with BM and continue.

People with one name (like, for example, CHER)are as annoying as poison ivy. Other examples, include, but are not limited to, OPRAH,MADONNA,BONO, STING,and KOBE. See what I mean.

I forgot one: SHAQ.

The last Cher thread degenerated into talking about Maynard G. Krebs

No one ever mentions Maynard's friend and overlord Dobie Gillis
(YOU find something to say about Cher . . .)

Man, y'all LOVE her there in Florida. What gives?

I wonder how much more plastic surgery it will take to complete this tour from hell?

Well Dodge Arena - Hidalgo

djt - you have a valid point. Guess it's called the "Cher 'Nip and Tuck at Bulk Discount Prices Look What It's Done For Me' Farewell Tour" (so you don't forget, call before midnight tomorrow!).

There once was a Cher
Who couldn't bear
to say "I'm old!"
Or, "Hey, I'm growing mold!"
So she went on a tour,
Like an old fat mooer,
but decided to make it
So she could fake it
And make it last forever
Posted by: miketaba | June 25, 2004 at 06:54 AM
A mooer is a cow, or what mam used to call it.

MOTW: "Dodge Arena"
Well, it's not a bad facility at all...esp. compared to what we've had to contend with up to now....So far--"Aerosmith, Minor League Hockey , ArenaII football, Ringling Bros., and now CHER...ahh culture..it's not Algona good, (no Cheeto, but we did have an image of Jesus on a tortilla on display at a person's home for a while) but it's something... we're just waiting for the RBR tour to head south!

Zelda!

Maybe Cher will take up skiing.
Posted by: chucke | June 25, 2004 at 07:30 AM
maybe she should re-title it, the "This time I really mean it..." tour. Go away already. and youre right, djtonyb - these venues are getting smaller and smaller. in fact, she'll be playing to an sro crowd in the ladies room at my office, next year. the acoustics should be great. It's a 3-holer, so order your tickets now. Bye Cher, it's been real!
Posted by: queensbee | June 25, 2004 at 07:33 AM
Scott: you meant ESTHER, right?
I can't believe this -- I thought Hidalgo, Texas was a joke. She's really playing there? Will they pitch a tent in a field?
Chucke: "Now cut that out!"
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | June 25, 2004 at 07:38 AM
Darn, she's not coming to California. I'm so heartbroken. (warning: heavy use of sarcasm)

The singer one syllable named Cher
Surgically primed, yet so unaware
That her fame has been waning
Yet she continues in feigning
A farewell tour 2 years old is entertaining.
Posted by: MOTW | June 25, 2004 at 08:16 AM
So there!
Posted by: MOTW | June 25, 2004 at 08:17 AM
But she still, remarkably, refuses to play in Algona, home of Iowa's swellest swimming pool....the big Cheeto may be too intimidating, even for her.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 25, 2004 at 08:42 AM
Scott, you forgot those other Monosyllabic Troublemakers, ADAM and EVE, who started the whole thing.
and yes, mtwbagnfarb
Posted by: igwanna | June 25, 2004 at 08:57 AM
What about Algona, Washington, home of the poisoned cows?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | June 25, 2004 at 09:26 AM
Cher: real name Cherilyn Sarkasian LaPier. So
at least there's a basis.
Adam: I can't manage to say this in one syllable.
Posted by: chucke | June 25, 2004 at 10:44 AM
scott- you forgot 'BRITNEY.'
At least Cher's still in stadiums. Small town stadiums, but still stadiums. But I agree, after 2 years, it's time to throw in the towel, or she is going to get awfully Spinal Tap-style pathetic.
Posted by: Blogchik | June 25, 2004 at 11:01 AM
Listen, if Michael Jordan and the Who can keep retiring, Cher can keep touring.
And she could knock the stuffing out of BM!!
Posted by: Lmd33 | June 25, 2004 at 02:26 PM
Isn't the Tyson Center in Sioux City, IA, a cattle feed lot? Is this what Cher has come to?
Posted by: BarryFS | June 25, 2004 at 04:18 PM
Key quote:
This is another fact that proves that North America will not let Cher take her final bow!
Umm, maybe it's because she can no longer bow?
I mean, with all the stretched skin she has, she may be to the point that she has to be wheeled out on a furniture dolly.
