SAMMY HAGAR: VAN HALEN Reunion Tour Is Like One Giant Celebration

[BARE BONE]

VAN HALEN frontman Sammy Hagar and drummer Alex Van Halen recently took part in a joint Boston Globe interview to discuss the group's latest chapter.

"This tour is like one giant celebration with all the fans that've been there forever," Hagar said of the current reunion tour. "People are really excited about this, and it makes me want to give everything that I've got."

The timing of the reunion was also right for guitarist Eddie Van Halen, Alex's brother who was regaining his strength in recovering from tongue cancer. "Ed went through a very difficult time," Alex said. "It was a health scare and, believe me, as his brother who didn't know if he was going to make it through the next week, it was a very strange experience. It's not something that you'd expect at his age."

Eddie, 49, has been avoiding the media, perhaps because he doesn't want to be asked about his health.

"There's a story about that, but now is not the time to talk about it," Alex said. "We're looking forward. We're not looking back. We went through some hard times with Ed and with some other things, but we're through that. We came out the other end stronger — and let's do what we do, which is to make music."


Whatever. What are you celebrating with spammy, cheeseburgers?

Unlike Alex, Sarge looks out for his lil' bro.

Sam brings nothing to the table...

[FORD]

Celebration of WHAT, exactly?

Spam? Velveeta? Tequila sales?

The fact that making money for Fear Channel helps Hagar's buddy, the Idiot Son of an Asshole in the White House??

Not seeing much to celebrate in the Pasture.....

Celebrating the art-form of mediocrity in American music.

Where else but America could a geriatric troll, a passive midget , a crippled mongoloid and a truth-challenged chemical dependent band together and take on the world?

It's like the Wizard of Oz minus the dog.

Phew, I thought you had signed up for the private forums at SH Links or something !!

[Coyote]

One big celebration, huh?

Sorry, Sam. I don't actually celebrate, I PARTY! :cool:

[Wayne L.]

This Van Halen reunion tour is all about the return of Eddie to the spotlight after a long absense, which is great. It's great to see VH kicking ass again because real rock & roll bands are hard to find these days. Speaking as an old VH/DLR era fan myself I think some of you are mentally ill criticizing Sammy in the name of defending Dave.

And you think this half-assed "band" playing to half full houses is kickin' ass, huh?

With all due respect, if you seriously consider it "great to see VH kicking ass again because real rock & roll bands are hard to find these days" then you are at best delusional.

Its a money-grab, and you sir are the kind of mark they are aiming at.

Open your wallet. Shut your mouth.

YAWN, You know how sick I am of hearing revisionist historians spew their self serving bullshit??? Sam Hagar has said so many things between 96' and 2003 without basis that he actually believes his own bullshit.

Remember all the interviews given by Sam Shithead about how he was "fucked" and how Eddie and Alex were drunk assholes who screwed Michael Anthony and stabbed him in the back???

Just what in the fuck are they celebrating?? Dysfunction??!! Also, I believe we need to address Eddie and Alex's sobriety claims of 96 through 98'. Remember that droll bullshit they spewed about being "sober" and in "therapy"??? All this pompous crap about how they were SO above the past and how they were "moving on"??? About how Dave had "time-warped"??? Sam didn't want to work and that they would never do ANYTHING for money, like a greatest hits tour with Roth??

Plus, all of the Valerie crap??? Please.... Val and Ed...what a drama that played out like most CLEAR thinking people knew it would: DIVORCE!!!! Should of happened 15 years ago.

Well, let's add this up class, shall we?? Eddie is STILL drinking and smoking. I'm sure Alex is the same. Mike Anthony is still a fire hydrant that gets pissed on regularly and Sam Hagar is as big of self centered dolt as he has ever been. Utterly ridiculous people.

Finally, all of the Van Hagar apologists like General Hina and all of the other dolts at the Links spewing their revisionist view of history. Being apologetic now for Van Halen and dickweed Hagar while still slamming DAve and believing all of the lies and rumors which were started by Sam Dickhead and his manager, the decomposing Ed Leffler, almost 20 years ago now. That's right people. Dave said himself, Sam was FOISTED upon us. Look up foist in the dictionary. It's based on trickery and deception. Sam didn't have the talent to step into Roth's shoes, so they decided to tear away at the Classic VH legend to make a place for that lying, fat piece of shit. NOw after being kicked to the curb, he is back and everything is hunky dory??? Bullshit and I can't wait for this thing to fall flat. It will...give it time Gang!
