I had heard of Hagar before he joined Van Halen but hadn't heard much of his music.
Prior to 1985, I had heard Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy, the song Heavy Metal from watching the film, Three Lock Box from the video on MTV, Two Sides Of Love from the video on MTV and I Can't Drive 55 from the video on MTV. I may have heard some other stuff of his before he hooked up with Van Halen but nothing I can remember. It wasn't like he was getting massive airplay prior to the I Can't Drive 55 song and in the early 1980s he wasn't someone anybody in my early teens peer group listened to or talked about. That's why when it was announced Hagar was going to replace Roth in Van Halen the reaction was along the lines of "really? The I Can't Drive 55 guy?"No!

Myself, I don't think I've ever went out and bought any remasters or reissues of anything from anybody unless it was a release I didn't already have.
That's talking music, anyway. There are some movies I already had on dvd that I bought blu-ray editions of if the blu-ray editions were loaded with extras exclusive to the blu-ray edition.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Justin Hawkins Blasts Ace Frehley On Live Show: ‘You’re A C—t If You Make The Darkness Late’
A video surfaced on Rock News Desk showing Hawkins addressing the issue on stage, after Frehley’s
overran performance pushed back The Darkness’ set.
Hawkins told the audience:
“You’ve noticed I wear a watch on stage. Some of you think, ‘Oh, that means he’s not 100% in it. He has
to sort of regard the time ‘cause he just wants to get back and eat the prawn sandwiches in the dressing
room.’ There’s a bit of truth in that, but I think the important thing about rock and roll is punctuality!”
“I’m not gonna mention any names, but somebody overran, and thus we were late coming on stage. I
apologize to all of you. But in fairness, the artist that overran – I’m not gonna name any names, okay?
I won’t name any names.”
Then, he openly named the ex-KISS guitarist, blasting him for his rider demands and referring to the
wig he’s been wearing for years:
“But I think some of their rider requirements were a little bit difficult to source in the middle of the f**king
Caribbean. One of those being wig adhesive! I’m talking about Ace Frehley. Sorry, guys.”
Allegedly, Frehley’s security approached The Darkness frontman in a coffee shop, confronting him about
the previous day’s remarks. This led to a private discussion between the two rockers, after which they
took photos together, suggesting a resolution had been reached.

I just hate the fact that they put it on every album 10 times.Comment

I've never understood the whole DARKNESS thing. It just went right over my head. Does nothing for me. (For one, I can't stand the guy's voice.)
Funny enough, the first person I remember selling them as the "next big thing" was a certain Diamond Dave...Roth Army Militia

I enjoy some of his YouTube spots. The Justin Hawkins Rides Again thing. He does have some interesting insights about “the pitfalls and perils of the music industry.” He often jokes that he knows what Darkness song is his attorney’s favorite. He seems pretty well aware that they never quite topped their first single. Him goofing on Ace was more than likely just part of the silliness of their show.Comment
