    Blender Slams Hagar Again!!!!

    UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE!!!! BLENDER is batting 1000% right now!!!
    Oct. 2004 Blender magazine review

    SAMMY HAGAR
    The Essential RED Collection*
    Thirty years of mediocrity from the Cali-rock bozo.

    If nothing else, this 20 track
    overview of lunk-headed hard rock
    proves definitively that Sammy Hagar has mastered the art of party anthems that just aren't fun. The sometime Van Halen singer sums up his three-decade solo career in the 1981 track"There's Only One Way to Rock," because, well, it's clear he only KNOWS one way to rock. The formula's simple: Shriek like a banshee; sing solely about girls, partying and cars (that part's not so bad); and deliver dubiously badass lyrics-"one foot on the brake, and one on the gas, there's too much traffic, I can't pass," from 1984's "I can't drive 55"- with a sledge-hammer's disregard for subtlety.
    Hagar even brazenly shills for his own Cabo Wabo tequila on 1999's "Mas Tequila." There's something inherently screwy when your nick-name ("The Red Rocker") and your brand of booze are better known than any song you've created.

            Sammy Hagar has mastered the art of party anthems that just aren't fun. I love that quote. Didn't dave say "Sammy throws a party, but I am the party". Dave only speaks the truth, kudos to Blender for a honest review.

                    Exactly right!!! I was thinking about that the other day, how the original Van Halen was such a fun band, and Van Hagar seems to be the complete opposite, the anti-fun. I mean, with Dave in the band, you had the sword/bo/martial arts kata, the jumping from the drum riser, playing to the audience; in the videos you had the band sailing around the arena on wires, cruising in cars, dressing up in outrageous outfits; in the music you had the songs with the famous Ted Templeman line, the Happy Trails, I mean the list goes on and on...
                    Somebody tell me what is comparable to that with Van Hagar?? Please!! Okay, granted, everybody is older now, Edward has gone through battling cancer, divorcing Valerie and Alex has been divorced too. But still, even immediately after Dave was gone from the band in '85 and they picked up Hagar, there still wasn't that atmosphere of fun to the band any more.

                            Agreed.

                            But only for Ronnie Montrose on my end.
