View Full Version : 9/11/04 Sam's comments in Ft. Lauderdale

As I said in another post, we've been getting nailed at work because of the back to back hurricanes, so Saturday my bud and I attended the 9/11 VH show here at the Office Depot Center.

I really do not feel I need to draw out the significance of this date for most Americans, as within the context of that setting, I'm sure many of you will be as astounded as we in South Florida were to hear Sam Hagar start telling a sarcastic and utterly thoughtless series of jokes about fire fighters, who along with policemen and women lost over 400 brothers and sisters on this date three years ago.

This all started when someone threw a hat to this fool onstage. The cap said "West Palm Fire Rescue" on it. He put it on, then went into a monologue about how firemen sit around all day, watching porn, and only work a few hours a week..."That's not a job, man..." is what the insensitive idiot said.

This was met (rightly) with a well deserved round of booing.

Later, he goes into his dismal "solo" set, announcing he'd picked out some songs "specifically" for this date...and proceeded to play the exact same two songs he's played at EVERY Show on this current tour.

Is it any surprise to any of you that the most warmly greeted tunes at this concert were from the Dave Roth era?

I apologise for the length of this post, yet I simply had to share with you folk how appalled I and many others were at this drooling turd's lack of conscience. I've never really came out and openly bashed the guy before, yet this was simply un-called for.

Thank's to those of you that choose to read this.

How the fuck are ya, Craig???

Anyway, this doesn't surprise me in the least. Sammy Hagar is an insensitive, stupid and uneducated man. He's a trashy piece of shit. In fact, playing WHEN EAGLES FLY as a tribute to 9-11 sounds kinda tasteless to me...why not just call it WHEN BOEINGS FLY?

Stupid son of a bitch.

NOBODY has ever accused Spammy Hagar of being an intelligent man, and it's no wonder why. The STUPID bastard just doesn't get it. After the sacrifices that the NYFD & NYPD made on 9-11, one would think that VERY AMERICAN, even a supposedly PATRIOTIC ONE like Spam, would have realized they make those kind of sacrifices on a daily basis. But, as I have said, he is a STUPID individual. So, please don't take offense at what ONE un-educated hippy has to say, CRAIG. The VAST MAJORITY of AMERICANS appreciate that Firefighters and Police Officers make huge sacrifices everyday!!!

Damn, people. The crowd misunderstands Hagar joking around and your mouths starts foaming. I seriously doubt he meant what you want him to have meant it.

It was mentioned at the links...and I make no apology for what I post anywhere.

In any event, what business is it of yours what I or anyone cares to post? How am I being the least bit hypercritical? Everyone that knows me is aware that I approve of the Roth era more...I also happen to be a fan of Ed Van Halen's musicianship.

Reread the post that I started this thread with...I clearly state that this is the first time I've openly bashed Sam Hagar.

Did I call him overweight? Attack his singing? No.

I simply called in to question his character and sensitivity on a day that many of us feel strongly about.

If upon rereading that post all you care to offer is a comparison of the nature of my threads at two opposing sites, I question yours as well.

Well, if you're so concerned with character, it seems you would be against throwing stuff like that out (especially here), knowing you really have no idea what Hagar really meant by them. I seriously doubt the same dude who threw a free show in NY for fire fighters & police would honestly and intentionally bash firefighters.

Whats the matter BIA, run out of things to talk to (NO)Mas Tequila about? Bugsy-vh not entertaining enough? So, back here to get some stimulation. Look, Hagar has the mental capacity of a grapefruit, and the SISTERS aren't far behind. If you don't like the conversation, join your bud POLO-PONY back at the STINKS. In other words, this is an A-B conversation. C your way out of it.

Where is this "bullshit" you describe?

Not that I've created a ton of threads here, yet by comparison your purpose seems basically to run about taking pot shots at people, without truly adding any content to the threads you post on.

(Notice I didn't resort to calling anyone any names here? That's primarily because the thread is about an event I witnessed, and this is where I choose to post it at. The thread is about my objection to the event, not about ME!!!)

And I will ask you a second time, as you obviously and conveniantly chose to ignore it the first time: What business is it of yours, and furthermore...WHY is it any of your concern? When and where were you elected arbitor of of behavior for anyone, including myself?

I already have a mother, father, wife and kids...your contributions and comments about what and where I do things are not only unnecessary, they are redundant.

Yeah, lots of misleading speculation and fat jokes to add to this...but that's what everyone else is for. You wanted comments and reactions to your post...and you got it.

You post this misleading, uninformed crap in a public forum to get a rise and a reaction out of people and ask what business is it of mine? I "obviously and conveniantly chose to ignore it" because it was a stupid question.

Your whole basis is about character and yet you "obviously and conveniantly" ignored explaining the two-faced approach I asked about.

WOW, you do the same shit you accuse me of doing. That never happens here...

And, and yes...you actually ARE a sheep. And you know why? Because I know that I can make my own decisions. I know that I can appreciate the original Van Halen while putting my nose up at the shit version. That's a choice. You claim you can't be a real fan if you don't like all Van Halen.

You see Rikk, that's what I don't get. You and I both post here and there...and I make a concerted effort not to mix the fields.

It seems this fellow has nothing else to do than stir the pot, yet adds nothing.

My two favorite NFL teams are the Miami Dolphins and the Oakland Raiders (I know, that's my problem...). The only time I have mixed feelings is when they compete head to head.

Yet I don't see the point of someone existing solely to point out what ONLY THEY VIEW to be a contradiction.

Wasn't at the concert, and even if I were deaf, I was able to read the post just fine. The "drooling turd" was what caught my attention. You're treating it as if hagar meant his comments 100% and took a shot at him. That's bullshit since you don't know...or never will know what he meant. It 'seems' that you would have left it a little open ended instead taking the worst side possible.

You have still avoided my other questions, so I assume I'll get no answer.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but he hasn't done a day's work in his life that those guys do. I hope he thought about it after the show, he probably didn't, but maybe he thought about it for awhile.

It's comforting that you know exactly what to look for...

Personally I don't give a rat's ass. If enjoying Ed Van Halen's guitar playing is a sin, then I guess I'm going to hell.

Why should I have to apologise for that? You spend your entertainment dollar your way, I'll spend mine in my own fashion.

Next time, try doing a little more research before you rush to judgement, is pretty much all I'm saying...I"m not going to go into a big thing defending myself...yet I guarantee you my ass will not be sent to the Pen, and not until hell itself freezes over.

Not that I've been here a long time, yet thanks for the deep insight after 38 days...and I really don't care if you've been here for years.

WTF??

So, how the hell are you going to find people to have a good conversation when you enter the place with both fists blazing? That's moronic.

You know, there's another way to have good conversations. Enter calmly, take a deep breath, and then make your first post a calm topic introduction. That's what most people do that aren't just looking for attention. I guarantee you that you'd have more people willing to have a good conversation with you if you tried that.

BTW, nice demeanor in attacking my posting style. You don't even know me, idiot. You've been here the whole of five minutes. If you want good conversation, I'm capable of that too. But think of how many great conversationalists you put off by just starting a fight as your first post.:rolleyes:

As I said in another post, we've been getting nailed at work because of the back to back hurricanes, so Saturday my bud and I attended the 9/11 VH show here at the Office Depot Center.

I really do not feel I need to draw out the significance of this date for most Americans, as within the context of that setting, I'm sure many of you will be as astounded as we in South Florida were to hear Sam Hagar start telling a sarcastic and utterly thoughtless series of jokes about fire fighters, who along with policemen and women lost over 400 brothers and sisters on this date three years ago.

This all started when someone threw a hat to this fool onstage. The cap said "West Palm Fire Rescue" on it. He put it on, then went into a monologue about how firemen sit around all day, watching porn, and only work a few hours a week..."That's not a job, man..." is what the insensitive idiot said.

This was met (rightly) with a well deserved round of booing.

Later, he goes into his dismal "solo" set, announcing he'd picked out some songs "specifically" for this date...and proceeded to play the exact same two songs he's played at EVERY Show on this current tour.

Is it any surprise to any of you that the most warmly greeted tunes at this concert were from the Dave Roth era?

I apologise for the length of this post, yet I simply had to share with you folk how appalled I and many others were at this drooling turd's lack of conscience. I've never really came out and openly bashed the guy before, yet this was simply un-called for.

Thank's to those of you that choose to read this.

Sad to say but, I think I speak on behalf of every member of the DLR Army (that isn't racist, of course) when I say.....we ain't surprized.

Add that to the list of 'What A Jerk That Hagar Guy Is".

Dave plays to 500,000 fans singing and dancing to 'Jump' for July 4th in Boston, and Sammy Hagar makes a cruel, unappreciative joke about Firefighters on Sept. 11th.

Oh yeah and of course, those sheep at the links will defend his answer.

Of course...

The fact that this guy went to go see Van Hagar kills any ounce of his credibility. "We went to see Van Halen". F' off - Scrue you and the camel you rode in on. NEVER go see Van Halen unless DLR is fronting the band. I hear the Sheep pen calling, boy!

I don't give a flying fuck about my credibility...seen the band in 1978, seen 'em in 2004.

You hate Hagar with a passion, great...I don't love the guy either. The point is you don't know shit about me, nor I you.

And I don't ride a camel either. On behalf of the camel, however...we both appreciate your offer of screwing us both, but sadly (for you) neither of us play that way.

Maybe we should contact the Diamond One and get his thoughts on Spam's dumb ass, ill timed comments. Dave is a paramedic in training. And I don't think you would hear a comment coming out of his mouth like that.

Excellent point that I completely forgot about. Wow. Ironic, ain't it? Roth an EMT getting 500,000 people dancing to 'Jump' on July 4th, and Hagar making fun of Firefighters on Sept. 11th.

Well I think we have our sheep of the week for this Friday...BackInAction, congratulations you fucking Sammy cocksucker.

Let's review BackInAction's insinuation that Dave is dumb. You are kidding, right? Isn't Dave a scholar of Huckleberry Finn? See what people don't understand is that it takes the really smart people to play the role of someone silly or stupid or what have you. I give you Carol O'Connor as Archie Bunker, Ed O'Neill as Al Bundy, or Mike Judge as the creator of Beavis and Butt-head.

BackInAction is so dense, boring and unimaginative like all Van Hagar fans are, he fails to understand that what Dave did on stage was an ACT. OK, an ACT. FANTASY. Not to mention one hell of an act that no other rock and roll singer has ever pulled off like him. But no, BackInAction like the other Sammy faggots takes everything literally. Fuck you.

Now back to the thread, the Spamster did not mean it as an insult. I highly doubt he was being malicious. In his pea-brain minded way, he actually thought he was being funny. And that right there, ladies and gentlemen shows you why all die-hard Roth fans have so much emnity towards this dildo.

I hope this gets posted at the Links just so I can find out under what justification THIS one gets closed.

Hagar has the class of a stale dog turd,. This is no secret. But, making fun of firefighters on 9/11???

Is he that fucking clueless?

09-13-2004, 08:34 PM
He probably sincerely thought that making a "joke" would provide some much needed levity and put smiles on people's faces. What a dunderhead.

I don't know how much more I can add that hasn't been said already. No matter WHO he is, his comments were uncalled for. He is one big commercial. When I saw him in the Sam/Dave tour he was peddling his booze. This time around he basically stomps on americans faces with that brilliant comment.

Not good.

"How many times has Hagar embarrassed himself publicly?"- Don Corleone

Maybe the yellow pages rent-a-clown is so fucking comfortable in the big yellow pajamas that his mouth and sphincter become one and the same?

You know, hops around up and down until the lower GI is the pie hole...just spewing shit.

He doesn't even notice 'cause it's like banana baby food shit that matches the pajamas.

The mandals? Just hose 'em out at the changing station.

Well, if you're so concerned with character, it seems you would be against throwing stuff like that out (especially here), knowing you really have no idea what Hagar really meant by them. I seriously doubt the same dude who threw a free show in NY for fire fighters & police would honestly and intentionally bash firefighters.





:confused: You're a Van Halen fan at one site and post bullshit on another... Kinda two-faced..no? Now that's character!

Personally I don't give a rat's ass. If enjoying Ed Van Halen's guitar playing is a sin, then I guess I'm going to hell.

Why should I have to apologise for that? You spend your entertainment dollar your way, I'll spend mine in my own fashion.

Next time, try doing a little more research before you rush to judgement, is pretty much all I'm saying...I"m not going to go into a big thing defending myself...yet I guarantee you my ass will not be sent to the Pen, and not until hell itself freezes over.

Not that I've been here a long time, yet thanks for the deep insight after 38 days...and I really don't care if you've been here for years.

The point I was trying to make was…
People that go to see Sham Halen (even if it is only to see Ed, Al & Mike) add to the ticket sales or buy their albums, make it look like Sham Hagar is also an acceptable part of the draw!
I am all for a boycott of anything Van Halen do, whilst ANYONE else is in Dave's rightful spot!
Dave is THE integral part of the sound & song writing of the band. Look at Me Wise Magic & Can't Get Enough Of This Stuff No More; two classic sounding Van Halen tunes...that rock! Not the wishy washy M.O.R sound of everything since Dave departed the band.

If there's no Dave, then it's just a poor imitation. IMO TBH
