SAMMY HAGAR: Headed Home For NASCAR Weekend
February 21, 2007Sammy Hagar has posted the following message on his official web site:
"Hey, Redheads! Headed home to Fontana for a big NASCAR weekend and in between plates of my Mom's Italian home cooking I'll be down at California Speedway on Thursday, February 22nd playing for the Fontana Racefest Fanzone which is an outta sight afternoon and evening of checking out cars and drivers with my show and a big fireworks display to cap it off. I also get to be the Grand Marshall on Saturday for the Stater Bros 300 and who knows maybe they'll let me drive the pace car! (They might not be able to keep up with me if they do.). Last of all, I'm going to play in front of the grandstand on Sunday for the Autoclub 500 and if you can't make it down be sure to tune into FOX at noon Pacific time for the pre-race festivities and you'll be sure to see me there. This is going to be a great weekend and these guys will NOT be driving 55! See you on the track!"
Even though Hagar won't be on the road much this year, he has been performing recently at his Cabo Wabo Cantina in Mexico with former VAN HALEN bassist Michael Anthony and RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS drummer Chad Smith, and he told Launch the three of them might hit the studio together. "We're thinking about, when the CHILI PEPPERS tour is over, about doing a little record," he said. "Not a permanent thing, but we've been calling ourselves CHICKEN FOOT down here, you know? A power trio. And it's so much fun playing in a power trio, you know? I haven't done it in a long time, playing all the guitar, and, and Mike and I singing together. It's pretty strong, man, it's a pretty exciting band. So we're thinking about going in the studio, and maybe making a record."
