       "Shake your money maker!" …

       that's  what  Ronald  Isley,  vocalist  and  founding  member  of  The  Isley  Brothers  told  his
       audience  towards  the  end  of  the  legendary  rock  and  funk  band's  16-song  set  at  AVA

       Amphitheater during their stop-off in Tucson on Saturday, June 10th. It was an electrifying
       evening with The Commodores and The Isley Brothers, who are still going strong – 64 years
       for The Isley Brothers and 50 years for The Commodores, if you are counting. Even though
                                      there’s  been  quite  a  few  member  changes  for  both  groups
                                      throughout their rich musical history, the music remains the
                                      same.  Sweet,  sexy,  soul  permeated  the  amphitheater  air
                                      tonight, prompting non-stop, spontaneous dancing throughout
                                      the appreciative audience. There was a party goin’ on in here!
