Rick Springfield Is 76!

Funny story. When I was in maybe 7th grade I was a member of Rick Springfield’s fan club. I got a letter “from Rick.” The penmanship of the letter was so cool that I spent actual time studying it, and it became “my” writing forever after that. I don’t know, I just liked the way the e and a looked. That was a long time ago. 

Rick looks great, though! 76.

 

My friend Michelle and I went to see Rick twice in the 1980s.The first time was at the Hartford Civic Center, the second at New Haven Coliseum. He put on a great show. We screamed our tween heads off and loved every minute.

 

I remember making our own concert t-shirts. Baseball shirts and iron-ons from the shop at Skate Odyssey.  

 

Good times.
