Dear Red Heads,
I hope your Turkey day was great.  Unfortunately, the Red or Dead Benefit that was planned for December 22, 2003 at the Marin Civic Center isn’t going to happen.  We have cancelled it because we started working on it too late.  I never realized how much work is involved in putting on a benefit.  Sorry about the news but I’ll see ya in Cabo 12/28, 12/31 & 1/2/04.

Sammy and the Waborita’s will be performing a semi-electric accoustic set on January 9th in Walnut Creek benefiting the Animal Rescue Foundation.  The line up for the evening is Jim Hackenberry (Bay Area Artist), Kevin Cronin (REO Speedwagon) and a comedian guest.

A couple of months ago I called Alex out of the blue because we had run into a mutual friend and both of us said to tell each other "hello". So I said, "I am going to call him" and we talked. Alex said "Hey, next time you are down here call me and we’ll have dinner or lunch or something." So a few weeks ago I was in L.A. I called Al, we had lunch, spent the whole day together. It was great. Reconnecting as friends. That was the end of it. A couple weeks later I talked to Ed on the phone, and a few times since then. It’s like old times as friends but nothing more than that. It’s great to have open communications with some old friends again, much better than being in a maze. If anything develops more from that when the time is right, I will keep you posted. 

Meanwhile, upcoming tour dates you need to know:

12/28 Sammy Hagar & the Waborita’s at the Cabo Wabo Cantina

Yo!  Wabo Rats, (that’s right) or maybe Red Headed Wabo Rats, ok, ha!

First of all, thanks for my favorite CW  Meltdown/B-Day Bash ever!  I thought the WR’s played some of our best shows ever & all the special guests were so much fun.  They all get it.  Fellow WR’s.

The gifts were outrageous, new lampshade, bong cups, a whole new wardrobe of  shorts and shirts, pictures, pipes, trinkets, a mess of stuff.  No matter how many times I’ve said no gifts no one listens.  I really don’t need any more than you all just coming down.  Thanks for that.  I’ll try to write a song about the event.  The camping for tickets, the line, the party etc.  But you can’t rush a song idea so hopefully it will come soon.  Thanks again see you on that long road to Cabo-

P.S.  I have changed the name of the band to SH & The Wabo Rats, mascot, logo etc, shortly.  Ha!

Love ya all,

Sammy
