We the signers, wish to see Rick Springfield booked and performing at the 2009 On The Waterfront Festival in Rockford, Illinois. Rick Springfield has a large fan base that is not afraid to travel to attend one of his performances. He regularly sells out 5 night in a row in Milwaukee, WI. He has familiy ties in the Midwest. He was last in Rockford for the filming of his DVD, \"Live In Rockford\", which was filmed at the Coronado Theatre. He has been performing for over 30 years, has a string of hit songs, and most recently released a new CD, \"Venus In Overdrive\", which debuted at #28 on the Billboard chart. He has reprised his role of Dr Noah Drake on General Hospital, has cruise planned for November 2008, and he is already booking shows for 2009. Do not miss this opportunity to get Rick Springfield to play at the biggest Labor Day festival in Northern Illinois.
