House of Blues in the Windy City

Chicago, IL
House of Blues
6/22/07

Rick Springfield played the House of Blues in Chicago on Friday. Fans in attendance got a special treat when he showed up and talked to Roe Conn during his radio broadcast from there at around 4:30 pm. While it was a "typical" interview, Rick did seem very talkative and seemed to be in a great mood. He did say that he was having to do diaper duty on his pug, having to cut out a hole so the tail would fit. He said he had been pushing his wife to possibly having another baby since both his sons were grown and he was wanting another "butt to diaper", and he kind of got his wish, only this butt happened to have a tail.

The set list was pretty typical, as follows:

Who Killed Rock N Roll
Will I?

Affair of the Heart

Alyson
I've Done Everything For You

Rock of Life
Red House

Don't Talk to Strangers

The Medley

Love Somebody
Jesus Saves

My Generation

Human Touch

Jessie's Girl

Love is Alright Tonite

And now, for some real news (ha). Apparently Rick ripped his jeans during the show. Which means that he's down to one pair. So the big question is - will we be seeing some new jeans soon, or will we just be seeing more of the cargos?
