The pair got double billing at Long Island's Westbury Music Fair last week, but they booked into different hotels. Sonny had his girl friend Susie Coelho in tow, and Cher, newly separated from Husband Gregg Allman, brought along the little ones, Chastity Bono, 8, and nine-month-old Elijah Blue Allman.
