Hey, I say if you still got it, go for it, and I think Tina's still got it. She probably has more energy on stage than alot of today's artists. Heck, if people like The Rolling Stones & Paul McCartney can still tour and keep it going in their 60's, why not Tina. Even Tony Bennett is still touring!!

I'd go see her in concert.
