SAMMY HAGAR's WABORITAS To Take Most Of 2007 Off

January 17, 2007

Sammy Hagar has issued the following update:

"The [WABORITAS] [Hagar's band] are going to take most of this year off except for the cruise, March 16 show in Cabo and The Tahoe Wabo's third-anniversary shows on May 4, 5, and 6 and my birthday bash October 6, 8, 9, 12 and 13. There may be a show here or there. I want to write some new songs, redesign my stage and gear up for the big 60 which will tentatively be the beginning of 2008 and all through the summer."

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."

The CHILI PEPPERS wrap up their North American dates March 7 in Houston, then head to Japan and Australia for shows between March 19 and April 19.
