Hagar Predictably Runs His Boorish Yap In Revisionist History Memoir, 'Red'

[ace diamond]

Ah it's all a freak show. Maybe the smart and enlightened souls don't buy into the whole money/acquisition game at all and find a nice safe place on the side lines and watch the rest of us fuck, screw, cheat, and manipulate each other for entertainment purposes.

thank you very much for the recognition.

[chefcraig]

The RIAA database sucks and it says 2x's Platinum was awarded in 1994......so they haven't sold any more records since then?

Or more importantly in the scheme of things, did the RIAA stop counting at that same point?

[kwame k]

I wasn't questioning you, just think it's a travesty that FW is one of the least-selling VH albums.

Didn't take it that way, bro

I'm amazed, too.....and like I replied to Craig, they haven't sold at least 500,000 albums since 1994?

[kwame k]

Or more importantly in the scheme of things, did the RIAA stop counting at that same point?

No idea but it seems that way.....

[Seshmeister]

The big worry is that if Sammy keeps burning bridges eventually he won't be able to find one to live under.

[kwame k]

Nielsen SoundScan is a subscription based site and they only started tracking sales since 1991.......so they're useless, too.

[chefcraig]

here is an analogy for all of you:
listening to sammy hagar sing is like listening to one of my records.
that really ain't saying much.........i'm just sayin'......

That isn't necessarily true, and doesn't work as an analogy. For one thing, you didn't single-handedly take a once fierce band and make it as threatening as a box of Cheerios. For another, although the subject matter of your own tunes may be somewhat limited (like Hagar's), you've never quite come up with a head-scratching worthy line like "Only time will tell if we stand the test of time."

So by virtue of those two examples ace, there is still hope for you yet, even if it is marginal.

I have to assume that by his statements that Spambo feels he IS a great singer and NOT gay? Holy shit does this guy come off as a jealous cunt who just needs to shut the fuck up. He digs his own hole... Anyone with a lick of common sense can pick up on the bullshit flowing in this piece of fiction. His comments on Ed are pretty spot-on, I'll give him that, but that's not shocking by any means. We've been saying the same thing for years. The late 90's - mid 2000's were a fucking waste for Ed. Like Dave has always said, EVH is guilty of wasting time.
But yeah, FUCK YOU SAMMY HAGAR.

gee, chef..did ya have to spoil my self-effacing bit of fun?

[sadaist]

This should actually put to rest all the "Dave is gay" shit the sheep try to post. If he truly were gay, Sambo woulda let that fly. Why not? He doesn't seem to be holding back on anything else.


But really what I take from this is I am so thankful Eddie cleaned up himself. I thought he was going to die back then. The best guitarist ever who wrote my all time favorite songs. The guy who I wanted to be when I was a kid. The guy that got me to buy a red & white guitar, grow my hair long just like his. the guy that showed the world you could rock hard & smile at the same time. I would have been crushed if he died in such a shitty way undeserving of the greatest to ever pick up a 6-string.

But it brings me to an odd point. When he was in that horrible condition is when he hooked up with wife/publicist/porn chick no? Dude couldn't even attract hobo fleas and he gets her? Nah...couldn't have had anything to do with money.

Either way...extremely happy that Eddie is alive & relatively well. And that he is back with Dave in the studio.

[ace diamond]

FUCK YOU SAMMY HAGAR.

...and the cradle will rock!!!

Well, that they haven't made it 3 million yet with FW.....

Watching you affect humility is like watching old people pitch, ace.

it's quite entertaining, isn't it?
besides, if you can't laugh at or bag on yourself,
something ain't right.

[kwame k]

Not really, Ace but...... it does seem every thread you post in, at some point turns into something about you.

[VanHalener]

I wonder who Sammy was fucking in the sex tent. Mike?

A Mexican donkey that he takes everywhere.

[Nitro Express]

A Mexican donkey that he takes everywhere.

Good thing Ed plays loud. The guitar solo covered up the donkey squeals and Sammy moaning he was going to cum hard.

[sadaist]

A Mexican donkey that he takes everywhere.

Funny.

But honestly, you shouldn't be allowed to post until you change your avatar back to that little cutie wearing the ballcap. Hell man, at least put the pic in your sig.

[VAiN]

Nitro, please don't ever say that again.

What should be noted is Ed cleans up as soon as another woman comes into his life. Vallerie really fucked Ed up. I mean when Val leaves the picture and another woman changes him for the better, that should say something right there. Val let Ed go to seed or drove him there.

[Nitro Express]

Or Ed just realized he was dumb enough to let Sammy in the band and got on cheap wine and meth to try and hammer the memory of that mistake out of his brain.

[VanHalener]

Funny.

I'll dig out the picture. She's a piece of arse for sure.

just pat him on the head and say 'good boy'... like a labrador. oh yeah... sammy hagar sucks

[Hardrock69]

We should have a competition here when this shit comes out. Hagar Lies Bingo, the person who finds the most documented lies and falsehoods wins a prize. I guarantee the winning score will be at least 3 figures...

The winner should get the grand prize: Never having to hear that flatulating poofter again.

actually, it was a "golden girls" kind of joke.......a bunch of droopy piss flapped old hags sitting around bitching....

[Hardrock69]

Hey Russell, You still playing guitar once in awhile?

[ace diamond]

just pat him on the head and say 'good boy'... like a labrador. oh yeah... sammy hagar sucks

So much of this crap is WWE mentality. None of us were there for any of this, so not authorities on any of it. I'll probably get this book just As I did Dave's, and I'm sure the creative license each took will be equal. To me, the tone of Daves book was "let me back in", peppered with tales that no one could verify. Sams will probably try to make it sound like he doesn't want back in, and be peppered with anecdotes no one can verify. Both of these guys are huge egotists, took swipes attach other all along, and toured together when they realized they weren't much without VH. Daves audience dwindled through his solo years, tours were canceled and he was playing clubs while trying too hard by the end of it. Sam will never enjoy the success he had with the boys and will try to make it seem like he was the first one off the Titanic. Dave and Sam both know they have to believe things first before we will. I admit, Dave seemed a bit tentative at times on the reunion-ish tour, and some still scratch their heads I guess, but so what if
he is gay? What if he likes broccoli too? Who cares? Sam wants to tell us how rich he is? Whatever. An Ed? His ticket was punched before he ever picked up a guitar, but his success gave him the means to nearly kill himself in front of all of us. I don't think this upcoming album is gonna be anything much. ALL these dudes re past their creative peaks, that's why nobody can let go of the past.

but he plays one in "carnies"

i did not play a dog in carnies, you twit.

[ace diamond]

good boy. good, good boy.

oh, bloody well piss off!
fancy a pint of bitter?

oops, too damned bad, i drank it.

forget your bucket and spade..........

[PETE'S BROTHER]

oh, i may as well bloody well piss on a hydrant!
