Travis Tynes & Jerry States Circa 1980 - (Turret Room, Khyber )
“Best friends, Travis and Jerry were always together; an inseperable duo. Drag performances by these two were always a treat. Jerry was the only drag performer that I knew that used his own voice to sing along with the likes of Melba Moore and hitting every note ( note for note ) and Travis took his performances very serious and carried his own along with the others. Jerry and Travis are no longer among us and I know that I am not the only one that misses them since they have gone.” - Reg Giles (Link)
