Rick Springfield Bonus Concert on the Lido Deck, Friday Nov 14th 2008
The view from afar! Rick and Company were high atop the Lido Deck. Just below them was the pool and hot tubs. By the time Rick finished the first song the deck was packed wall to wall with people and the levels with the beach chairs around the deck were also full. He did dare us to jump in and a few brave souls did. lol There was a big screen that plays movies, TV and music video's during the day so even if you didn't have a good view you could still see the action. They were somewhat plugged in, no keyboards though. Derek played percussion instead, drummers took turns most notably Rodger playing with Matt on his shoulders. Ronnie got a turn too. Both Georges took a turn at guitar. A friend summed it up as a "garage band feel" and that it was. Free and unscripted. And you could see all the guys were enjoying themselves.
All cruisers on the ship were invited to this show. And I am sure some were curious about all the goings on during the cruise and they finally got a peak into it. Rick asked for an IGE girl and eventually one was found.
A different kind of set list for sure and even took a few requests.
