The urge for nature and feeling of wanting to get away from the city life might tempt some band members to skip out on some dates but Toni and her band have a pretty clean record, “I think over the 20 some odd years we've been touring, we've missed one and that was at the Garden State Arts Center in New Jersey, because of airlines and screw-ups. “
Sometimes the band would end up at a concert where they were running on fumes and had zero sleep due to delayed flights. There have been times when they arrive right before the start time of their concert. That’s one of Toni’s biggest concerns because she doesn’t think that is fair for the fans. She’d rather pass out from being tired than miss out on performing in front of her fans.
Personal Life
Toni Tennille dated Daryl Dragon for some time before they got married in 1975. An interesting fact behind their marriage is that Toni revealed how A&M Records pushed the duo into marriage.
