This is true.
Rick Springfield doesn't change whatsoever, and he therefore remains as awesome a dude as ever.
Great that he played your church festival in Slovakia and still has great songs to perform wherever he may travel.
Everyone seems to know someone who resembles Rick Springfield, and this is also a good thing to have one in the family because that way you could be reminded of Rick on an ongoing basis and not forget the way some would do.
