I hated marching band my freshman year of high school.
So why did I stay in for three more years?
When I first joined marching band, I didn’t know anyone. I had a hard time making friends because of my shyness. Even worse, the staff and upperclassmen yelled at me when I couldn’t march in step. And then we didn’t make state finals by one point.
Find out why I stayed in band for three more years and how it changed my life in Confessions of a Marching Band Member.

I never dreamed marching band could change my life anymore than it already had.
So how did it change my life?
I had grown to love my four years of marching band in high school. I missed it when I graduated. As a college student, I watched the band at practices and followed them to contests.
Hanging around the band paid off. When I got the chance to become a staff member, I jumped at the opportunity to help the marching band.

I first heard “Jessie’s Girl” in the summer of 1981. Some people might say I’ve become obsessed with Rick Springfield since then. I call it love of a man and his music.
From the age of 12 until adulthood, my love of Rick and his music has grown. He isn’t just a good-looking rockstar. He is so much more than that. His smile melts my heart, but his songs heal my mind in ways I never thought possible.
Confessions of a Rick Springfield Fan is the heartfelt story of my devotion to him through the years.
