[edit]Sources referring to it as the Take Me Home Tour:
- "The design was for a costume worn by Cher in her 1981 concert 'A Celebration at Caesar's' as part of her Take Me Home tour."
- "In 1980 ... I reached out to some of my former tour producers and within a week or two I was on tour with Cher on her 1980 Take Me Home Tour, which throughout that year travelled in two week stints between the Circus Maximus Showroom at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and at the Stateline Showroom at Caesars Tahoe in Stateline, Nevada. I was hired as the roadie for the tour."
- Shows represented include ... Cher's Take Me Home Tour debut show".
- 'Take Me Home,' Cher's biggest hit since 'Dark Lady', necessitated a casino and nightclub tour. Summed up by Variety as "a lush package and a well-conceived one in which Cher unveils both her new show and considerable portions of her anatomy," for Cher's very first solo outing-no Sonny, no Gregg, just Cher-she was backed by a band, four dancers, three back-up singers, and three female impersonators; J.C. Gaynor as Bette Midler, Russell Elliott as Diana Ross, and Claude Sacha as Cher. Her set included everything from 'The Way of Love,' and Stevie Wonder's 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours' to the Eagles' 'Take It to the Limit' and 'Easy to Be Hard' from Hair ... Fresh from his directorial duties on the Broadway production Platinum, Thaler came away from the Take Me Home Tour with a lasting impression."
- My Take Me Home show had the brilliant comic Michael Keaton opening for us, who was one of the funniest people I have ever met.

Cher in Concert → Take Me Home Tour (Cher) – The concert series currently titled Cher in Concert was originally promoted under different names, including "Cher", "The Cher Show", "Cher in Concert" and "The Cher Tour". At the time, it didn't have an official name, as it wasn't common practice for pop artists—Cher included—to name their tours. Over the years, the series has come to be widely known as the Take Me Home Tour, a name Cher herself and several biographers have used. Today, it's the most recognized and commonly searched title for the concert series. Changing the article title to Take Me Home Tour (Cher) ensures consistency and reflects how the tour is remembered today, rather than arbitrarily choosing one of the various promotional names used at the time.
