On this day, 9 July 2000, American singing icon Tina Turner played Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium on her Twenty Four Seven Millennium Tour. Support was provided by TaxiRide and former Creedance Clearwater Revival leader, John Fogerty.
The tour initially was set to promote her latest studio album. During promotion, Turner acknowledge the tour as her final one as she enters pseudo-retirement.
“I've been performing for 44 years; I really should hang up my dancing shoes. I can't keep up with Janet Jackson. I'm not a diva like Diana Ross. I'm rock 'n' roll, but I'm happy I can do it one more time, so people can remember me at my best."
