Yes, it's true.

I touched Rick Springfield's butt.

And, yes, I am a dork.

Ahhhh singing right to me....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and then.....he crowd surfed through the audience and I HAD told hold him up.  Of course, I was not coordinated enough to hold the camera steady while touching his butt.

Gretchen Lee Bourquin Dec 14, 2008, 10:41pm EST
Rick Springfield was my first concert along with Quarterflash when I was thirteen. I was sensitive to the loud music, and I wound up getting sick. I never would've predicted it from the Tigerbeat pictures on my wall. It sounds like your experience was a little better.
Doug H. Dec 14, 2008, 10:44pm EST
Well, congrats on touching his butt. But the important question is, did you touch his guitar?
Alicia Loudon Dec 14, 2008, 11:15pm EST
Thats pretty funny.
Marianne R. Dec 14, 2008, 11:41pm EST
Woohoo! He's still hot. I saw him in concert when I was in 8th grade.
