Rick Springfield
Holiday Inn
Decatur, IL
Originally, we were supposed to have a "Rick" weekend, seeing 4 shows in 3 venues over 3 days: Decatur on 8/10, Navy Pier 2 shows on 8/11, and Merrillville on 8/12. Rick broke his arm 2 weeks before while performing at EFX in Vegas. The Decatur and Navy Pier shows were rescheduled for the last weekend in October, and Merrillville was canceled. The shows were rescheduled again for this weekend. Navy Pier was then canceled due to security concerns following the tragic events of September 11th.
We were lucky enough to run into Rick outside of the restaurant in the hotel. He was so sweet, as always! He signed a few autographs and posed for a few pictures until his handlers dragged him off into the elevator!
