Who in the hell refuses to listen to music because they don't like the name of the band? That's silly. If the music's good, who cares?
....I heard (maybe through this site) that RHCP is on hiatus for at least a year, and no plans on reconvening at this point. Who knows if we've seen the last of them, which would be a shame! Saw them live, and it was awesome! I just wish I could have seen them back in the early 90's.

I saw RHCP both in early 90s & last tour, they are one band that actually improved. They were thin sounding live then, and Fruciante laid back more, he was definitely out front more now, they actually jam now, I was blown away their last tour, wasn't expecting it to be that "rockin". Chad is solid too. snappy style.

can't wait for this record and tour.it must realy kill you haters that no matter what you say about Sammy he still puts out great music and puts on a great show.meanwhile your boy roth makes a livining singing the same songs he did 30 years ago when vh first hit.he is nothing without vh while Sammy just keeps putting out great music.now he has a band that nobody but a jealous hater can say sucks.Sammy owns you!
Thank god van halen got rid of sammy gaygar before he absolutely destroyed the legacy of van halen. Chickenfoot is hands down the gayest name ever led by the gayest man ever. His music sucks donkey balls.
COMMENT | someone old enough to enjoy van halen/hagar and the end of vh posted by : wobsterbrown 5/23/2009 12:19:34 AM
people, i was 14 when i discovered vh 1 and 2 and from then on i thought dave and the boys were gods. i went into the depression stage when in 1985 they announced the party was over. when i found out sammy was going to try to carry van halen, i thought hell yeah! this dude has the attitude. he may pull this off. i really think he did. every time i get a new vehicle, i bring "for unlawful carnal knowledge" so that i can break my "new" used vehicle out to "poundcake". don't get me wrong, "unchained" is the best vh thumper of all time, but give credit where credit is due,..anyway, the point is this, sammy hagar did not ruin van halen. edward van halen did that (with or without his big brother, and his brother in law manager) eddie van halen has done nothing but play the fans for the past decade. he fires sammy, and decides to play with roth again, then decides, he needs a hip replacement?????? then hires gary cherone, puts out a new cd, (i love "once" and "without you" is tolerable) but due to poor sales, cherone is fired. i left a "van halen 3" concert 30 minutes into it because they had hired the wrong person. as for eddie's talent, listen to van halen 3, if you can. listen to the sorry as shit "it's about time" on the best of both worlds cd. it is just a jumble of noise. my advice to eddie van halen is this , "start drinking heavily, we liked you when you were an alcoholic and wish that you had the fun about you that you had then. so what, if dave was an asshole, or sammy was into tequla, it paid the frickin' bills and ya'll made good music" sammy, you have lost your diety position. you have not put out a good cd since you left van halen. yeah, there is a good song here and there. but for the most part, especially that ten13 cd, sucks to the highest point of crap! as for chickenfoot? there are a lot of ignorant people out there. the question about "chickenfoot"...it is the PEACE sign. all you twats out there claim to be a fan. it is the peace sign in a box for all of you crack head, dense, etc........ well, after bringing the van halen tin god down to earth and the fact that sammy hasn't done as well, musically, what do ya say? eddie van halen is a user. eddie van halen is a has been eddie is going to keep revolving singers to get you to pay him!!! eddie is dried up and won't admit it
COMMENT | The same idiots that didn't listen to any Van Halen with Hagar posted by : deathmetal4u81 5/23/2009 11:48:16 AM

it's not a "peace sign in a box", it's a chicken foot.

COMMENT | That was good. posted by : Jack Bauer 5/23/2009 2:37:32 PM
There is hope this year for good music to displace the Nickleback/Seether/Theory of a Deadman bs we are stuck listening to every minute of the day. Bring on:
Chicken Foot Alice in Chains Creed Pearl Jam
Albums.
COMMENT | funny smith used to make fun of Hagar posted by : steprous 5/23/2009 2:55:28 PM
When first joined chili peppers they made a video about the making of their album and they sung a song making fun of hagar called "Sammy Hagar Weekend"
Seems as if it's a song by Thelonious Monster called "Sammy Hagar Weekend" (from the Stormy Weather album):
"Well, it's a Sammy Hagar weekend It's a Sammy Hagar state of mind It's a Sammy Hagar weekend It's a Sammy Hagar way of life
We're gonna drink some beer We're gonna smoke some pot We're gonna snort some coke and then drive over 55
Cuz it's a Sammy Hagar weekend Oh, let the big man through
We got our Metallica t-shirts We got our little tiny baby moustache Got a jacked up Camaro Sittin' in the parking lot of Anaheim stadium
drinkin' beer smokin' pot snortin' coke drivin' over 55 cuz it's a Sammy Hagar Weekend It's a big mans groove
just out cruisin' n boozin' on a Sammy Hagar weekend."
They aren't making fun of Sammy Hagar with that song, they are praising him in that song.
And for the guy that thinks it is a peace sign in the a box is right itis a peace sign and a chickenfoot combined. Sammy also had the K flipped backwards in the name. it's all about marketing, and they are serious about marketing this band to be fun, peaceful and a real kick ass rockand roll band.
you are right. it is a chickenfoot. foolish me, for trying to express my opinion about another fan's questioning about the "box". i have been to many hagar/van hagar shows, and have seen a lot of footage of him/them on television, and sammy tends to give the "peace" sign quite often. if this has disrupted your sleeping habits, or your abilities to be nice to people, well, it is my opinion. i am on this thing to talk about one of the greatest and one of the most underatest (i know this is not proper english, it rhymes) artists of rock, sammy hagar. p.s. i'm not a crackhead. i'm a jack (daniel's) head ha ha!
