From February 2001 through December 2002, Springfield performed in EFX Alive! at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas with great success, pleasing both critics and audiences. The show was a hit for its entire run, with Rick adding new songs and segments that made it uniquely his. EFX Alive! ended in December of 2000 - okay, did it end in 2000, even though it didn't begin until 2001? RickK 05:10, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)
There is a NEW Rick Springfield album put out this year, I changed the date to reflect this and someone put it back to 2004. Why?
In addition to the above statement: Rick Springfield - The Day After Yesterday, (c)&(p)2005 Gomer/DKE Records.
The unsourced statement about Linda Blair allegedly advising Springfield to go into acting has been removed because according to the A&E documentary video "Behind the Image", that advice did not come from Ms. Blair, rather, it came from the ex-wife of a friend of Springfield.

[edit] Paging Dr. Drake Ramoray?
Is Dr. Drake Ramoray, the fictional Doctor played by fictional character Joey Tribbiani, (who, in turn, is played by real actor Matt LeBlanc), on the sitcom Friends inspired by Dr. Noah Drake on General Hospital?
If so, this would be obvious, if not convoluted fodder for a trivia section. --- We are not a million monkeys and this is a real encyclopedia. -Brothereye
What about the confusion with Springsteen - the hit "Bruce" - thx. 207.6.81.139 19:11, 3 March 2007 (UTC)sds
[edit] Rumor regarding the "Beginnings" Album from 1972
I noticed that it says "citation needed" regarding that fact which came from the A&E documentary video "Behind The Image." How does one attribute a televised/available on Video program as a citation here at Wikipedia? or does it need to be something readily found online? I'm sure some other site has that info too.

[edit] Need for page protection on this entry
As of late, there have been several attempts to vandalize this page. People are imputting information here about Springfield's personal life that clearly violates the guidelines for biographies for living persons as stated at the top of this talk page: Controversial material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced. If one goes back into the previous pages, they will see that the "information" was definitely false and/or libelous. For that reason, on 9/26/06, I attempted to put the entry on "semi-protect" but today 9/27/07, I discover it was removed by some "bot." Why? How does one get the necessary page protection back on here? Ladycascadia 12:26, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
