From today's The Tripwire:
Not only is this Tripwire contributor a writer of new music, I also dabble in extra on television and films. We are also referred to as "background actors" or "atmosphere players."
Today was a special day to be atmosphere. I was on the set of the daytime soap General Hospital. I played the character of a mini-skirt wearing concertgoer. The concert was for the one and only Dr. Noah Drake, or whom we call Rick Springfield in real life.
Drake/Springfield was decked out in old man rocker gear. Jeans, a black button up with dragons (or something equally as crazy and rock n' roll like that), guy-liner, and accessorized with bracelets, which at some point, one broke and the wardrobe lady swooped in to replace it. Just like at a real rock concert! What a badass! And his backing band was the quintessential old-dude rocker band that you would expect Drake/Springfield to have. The drummer looked like a former metal guy who now has a family, the bassist is probably a roadie for the Goo Goo Dolls, and the guitarist may have been the guitar tech for Sugar Ray in the glory days. Hoorah for studio musicians!
It gets better. Read the rest here.

I saw him on accident when he played a free show at the Mall of America here in Minnesota. What is even more amazing is the women who come to his shows. Cougar warnings should have been issued
