For Memorial Day … “Remember the Heroes” – Sammy

Sammy headed to Cleveland for the opening of the new Sammy's Beach Bar and Grill in Cleveland Hopkins International Airport! Folks from the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame were even on hand to help with the official opening.

I love my fans so much, and God knows I really love the fans brave enough to rock my crazy look in order to be a Hagar "look alike", but unfortunately we are hearing reports about a guy in your area that is taking being a "Sammy Hagar look alike" across the line, and if those reports are true, we are not endorsing this at all and want to warn fans. There is a man who we understand is actually telling people he IS Sammy Hagar, and while impersonating me he may be posing for pictures, taking items and services from local business owners and not paying for them, and worse, he may be duping women into being with him in an intimate way. Please be safe, and please know the real Sammy Hagar cannot be in the Orange/LA area that often, and when he is he will likely be with Kari, his wife!

I love the idea that fans who own restaurants and bars might want to give me a drink or have me try a dish off the menu as a gift, but it is not cool if this guy is pretending to be me in order to take things and not pay for them. We have notified the local Police Department with the information we have received in the past regarding the instances of impersonation and potential fraud, and officers have been in contact with this individual to ask him to either stop or not engage in any potentially fraudulent act. Our fine folks in blue can only do so much to stop crimes, so please watch out for yourself. One sure way to tell him and me apart is I am no longer in my late 30's or even my 40's anymore! LOL!

“Acoustic-4-A-Cure review: Players’ stature barely fit in room”

When the lineup was announced for Sammy Hagar’s inaugural Acoustic-4-A-Cure benefit concert – Metallica’s James Hetfield, Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong, Train’s Patrick Monahan, Heart’s Nancy Wilson and local guitar god Joe Satriani – it was hard to imagine how they were going to fit all that ego into one room. Even if that room happened to be the Fillmore.
But from the moment the doors opened at the venue on Thursday for the sold-out show, proceeds from which will support cancer research at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, more than anything else it felt like a great big party among friends.

There were plenty of bear hugs, self-deprecating jokes and flubbed notes onstage, as the mighty multiplatinum rockers gamely tried to downsize their stadium-size sounds for the evening’s intimate, acoustic format.

Sammy and Kari attended the 57th Annual San Francisco International Film Festival at the beginning of the month for the screening of Supermensch, the first feature film directed by Mike Myers.  

Supermensch is the documentary of Sammy's friend and Hollywood beacon Shep Gordon, the talent manager of Alice Cooper and several others.  After leaving Van Halen, Gordon suggested to Sammy that he combine his lifestyle and Cabo Wabo attitude with his music and live show, or, "roll your whole thing into your whole thing."  

The documentary is "a fantastic must-see for any music fan" says Sammy.  You can watch the trailer for Supermensch here.
