Loverboy

In August 2011, Loverboy took the stage at the Illinois State Fairgrounds Grandstand, showcasing their undeniable energy with a live performance of 'Turn Me Loose.' At this point in their career, the band was riding the wave of nostalgia, having released their last studio album, 'Just Getting Started,' in 2007. This album marked their return to form, highlighting their signature blend of rock with catchy hooks, and even featured new material that resonated well with long-time fans. Interestingly, Loverboy became known for their dynamic live shows that often evoke a sense of communal celebration among audiences, and 2011 was no exception. The Springfield gig not only reminded fans of their classic hits but also emphasized the band's enduring appeal, proving that the spirit of 80s rock remains vibrant and alive.
