Rick Springfield has revealed that he’s recently discovered he suffered brain damage from a fall that took place 25 years ago.In a new chat with PEOPLE Magazine, the Australian-American rocker revealed that he recently underwent a full-body MRI scan that revealed shocking results stemming from an on-stage fall back in 2000.While performing in Las Vegas in 2000, the ‘Jessie’s Girl’ singer “fell 25 feet, hit my head and then wood came down and hit my head, and then my head hit the stage again.” At the time, the now-75-year-old rocker thought “I had just broken my wrist” but was surprised by the scan’s other results.“On the scan I found out I have some brain damage from the fall, so I’m working on trying to repair that.”Springfield then shared that he recently experimented with ketamine and LSD to see “if it would open a few things in my brain.” His willingness to experiment with unorthodox treatment comes after the death of his father, who “died from not wanting to know”.The rocker explained: “He thought he had stomach cancer for years and never got it checked out. When he finally collapsed one day at home, they found out it was an ulcer that burst, and he died from the loss of blood.

Rick Springfield, as the two performed at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, on January 21.During the rendition of his 1989 song ‘Angelia’, someone in the crowd was heard exclaiming loudly multiple times, while Marx continued to play, seemingly taking no notice. Following the completion of the song, however, he shared his frustration at the moment and went on to address the crowd and single out the noisy audience member.“I’m genuinely curious who raised you to think that anything you could yell out was more important than what we were doing,” he said from the stage, as seen in a video obtained by TMZ.He concluded by saying: “Learn some fucking manners, lady”, as the audience was heard cheering for the singer.The singer-songwriter has had an extensive career in the music industry, making a name for himself both as a solo artist and as a songwriter for many other musicians.His song ‘Hold On To The Nights’ topped the singles charts following its release in 1988, and he went on to reach Number One again the following year with singles ‘Right Here Waiting’ and ‘Satisfied’.His most recent studio album arrived in 2022 and was titled ‘Songwriter’.Marx’s tour with Springfield was set to continue last week, however, at the last minute several shows were postponed after the latter was taken ill with the flu.Revealing the news on his Instagram page, Springfield shared a statement reading: “I contracted one of the nasty flus running rampant and have not been able to shake it.”He continued: “I never want to not be at my best performing especially on this special show that my dear friend Richard and I have put together.
