I didnt bother wasting my $$ on them on the 04-05 tour after hearing how bad they sucked, also not being a huge fan of the Red Rocker... I hope things work out, but do they ever in the long run with these guys??

I agree too! but from what I gather, DLR and Michael dont exactly get along... I just know that when they had the Sammy/DLR tour a few years back that Michael would play on Sammy's set and not DLR, I think I read the the duo refused to talk to DLR... but things could have changed...who knows!

VELVET REVOLVER To Perform For And Induct VAN HALEN Into Rock Hall
Launch Radio Networks has issued the following report from Bruce Simon: VELVET REVOLVER has been tapped for VAN HALEN's induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. The band will perform in Van Halen's place, and singer Scott Weiland and guitarist Slash will speak on Van Halen's behalf. For now, it doesn't look like DAVID LEE ROTH and SAMMY HAGAR will join Velvet Revolver onstage, and Michael Anthony hasn't commented yet. It's still unknown whether Eddie and Alex Van Halen will attend the ceremony. Velvet Revolver just finished recording their new album, titled Libertad. It should be out this summer, and the band has South American dates with AEROSMITH in April and a possible US tour in May. Hagar had originally told us that he thought the job of inducting Van Halen into the Rock Hall would go to his friend and sometime drummer Chad Smith's group: "I was told that they were gonna get the Chili Pepp -- trying to get the (Red Hot) Chili Peppers to induct us. And I shouldn't, maybe shouldn't be saying this (chuckles), but... letting the cat out of the bag... I said, 'Chad, I think they're gonna ask you guys to do it.'He's going, 'Great, man!'(laughs)" ) Smith regularly joins Hagar onstage at the singer's Cabo Wabo Cantina in Mexico, and Hagar told us that he, Smith, and Michael Anthony are thinking about making a record under the name CHICKEN FOOT. |

I just read today...
Sammy, Michael, and Chad Smith (from the Chilis) are in a new band called Chicken Feet (?) Michael needs to be on bass.. NOT a 15 year kid... and I don't care who's kid it is.... Wouldn't it be ironic if Sammy and DLR were the ONLY 2 members who show up the RNR Hall induction?? I say F.U. to the VH brothers!!!!!!!!!!!!!

who feels that way, Here's a few chapters from Sammy Hagar's 'cancelled' autobiography:
----------------- "Sam really couldn't drive 55. When he wrote that song, believe me, it was the truth. Not only did he speed, but he was dangerous. One time when I was with him, we got pulled over in Marin County by an officer that had followed our car for some time. This highway patrolman was so angry at Sam's reckless driving, he wanted to haul him off to jail. This man even walked over to my side of the car and said, 'Do you know this man?' I said, 'Yes, he's my husband.' The patrolman says, 'What on earth are you doing in a car with him. He's a horrible driver!' I said, 'Well, he's my husband. I have to come with him.' I can't even describe to you how furious that officer was. Usually, Sam got off because cops recognized him. He would sign autographs, tapes, and most the time get a warning. But his cars were all registered in my name, because no insurance company would touch him with his record. Since he loved his cars so much, I didn't let my lawyers make an issue out of me owning them." When the divorce was finally granted, Betsy says she was not prepared to face the real world. "Do you know the saying, 'Woman, get thyself to a nunnery?'" she echoed. "I always joked with my friends that's exactly what I should have done. My whole life had been sheltered. I went from living at home with my parents to being with Sam. Even though we had a tough life at times, Sam protected me. Since he handled all the money, I didn't know what the real world was like. When he left me, I was a trusting fool left all alone with what most people would consider a lot of money. Sam always had so much help in that area. They gave him good advice and watched over his business affairs. I didn't have that, and consequently, I made a lot of mistakes." "I think the most criminal thing that Sam did by leaving me was setting this naive woman loose in the world. For years afterward, I made bad monetary calls, because I wasn't fit to be alone. That was the cruel part about our divorce. After 23 years of marriage, where you're dependent on one person for everything, preparing yourself for single life is hard. Not only was I clueless to how things worked in the real world, our divorce had left me an emotional wreck. My judgement was so clouded, I just wanted to isolate myself from the everyone so I wouldn't make any more errors." Life did go on for both parties. When the curtain call for that bittersweet symphony was over, the next settlement to be brokered was the contract Ray Danniels was submitting to Van Halen. With the new album in the mixing stages, it was time to finalize his management deal with the band. Hagar says that when he read the agreement that had been drawn up, he couldn't believe the terms Al's brother-in-law had proposed. "I remember the son-of-a-bitch wanted to get paid for the rest of his life," said an utterly amazed Hagar, "and that was for every Van Halen record sold in the catalogue. Even if he got fired tomorrow, he wanted 20 percent of everything. And get this. He wanted 20 percent of gross, not net. When I saw what he was trying to do, I went to the brothers raising hell. They were willing to sign Ray's proposed deal the next day. I went to Ed and Al and said, 'Are you guys crazy?' You don't understand, I was the only guy fighting this. Michael Anthony didn't have a real vote per se, so his involvement was limited. He's not a full partner, just a salaried musician in the band. He was almost replaced on every record we did, but believe me, I fought for Mikey too." Hagar refused to sign documents granting Ray Danniels any authority over his contributions to Van Halen since 1985. He thought the Canadian manager's demands were outrageous, considering he was stepping into a position that was already running smoothly, thanks to his predecessor. Because of his intense distrust of Danniels, Hagar wanted to implement a codicil into the manager's contract to insure a smooth transition, in case he was ousted from the band. The concept was called "the sunset clause," a prorated pay scale that would eventually phase him out five years after leaving the band, for whatever reason. The language Hagar worked out with attorney Don Engel stated that if Danniels was replaced, or left the band for any reason during the first year, he would be paid his previously agreed upon full percentage. The second year, he would get half of that. The third year Danniels would receive five percent, the fourth, one percent, and after five years, Van Halen was finished paying him. The idea came to Hagar from a conversation he had while touring with the legendary Joe Cocker, nearly twenty years earlier. "When Ray Danniels initially proposed his contract terms, I thought of my conversation with Joe Cocker. There was no way I was going to let Ray tie up every guy in this band. He wanted to make money off the whole Van Halen catalog from the first David Lee Roth record until now. I fought him for a month. First thing, I wouldn't give him any of my percentage of 5150, OU812, For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, and Live: Right Here, Right Now. I kept going to Eddie and Al saying, 'Come on you guys; think about this.' All they would say was, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever you say.' They would not stick up for me. Ray had them convinced that the reason the old catalogue didn't sell was that Ed Leffler never pushed it, because he didn't own a piece of it. Well, the reason Leffler never pushed the Roth stuff was the simple fact he didn't give a **** about it." "This band had sold 65 million records in their 18-year career, and Ray Danniels knew exactly what he was walking into. He wasn't fooling me with the bull**** he was telling the brothers. Eddie and Al went ahead and gave Ray a large piece of their percentage of the old catalogue with Roth. They even gave him part of their percentage for the albums I was on. I refused to give him anything. I didn't need Ray Danniels breathing down my neck, sucking my dick, holding my hand and selling me out all in the same picture. You want me to tell you something else? Ray Danniels makes more money off the David Lee Roth era albums than Michael Anthony. How about that one? Ray Danniels makes more money than Michael Anthony period! It's sick, man. Ed and Al go along with it, because they make more themselves." Hagar's rage at Danniels continued to bubble under the surface, as he saw the manager manipulate the Van Halens like puppets on a string. "I never signed a contract with him after I saw how he was doing things," he said defiantly. "This guy came in and immediately wanted twenty percent of everything. I said, 'You're walking into a band that's already making millions. You have the nerve to ask for more than the last guy made who did everything in the world for us! All you are going to be doing is making the same deals Ed Leffler already made with the promoters; the same deal with our record contract; and renewing the same publishing deal already in place. You think that since you're the manager, and you come in to answer the phone, that you should get twenty percent? I absolutely refuse to sign anything that gives you more than Ed Leffler made.' With the new album coming out, and plans for an extensive tour starting to unfold, some sort of agreement with Danniels had to be reached. During one conversation with Ray, Hagar mentioned the unfair treatment Michael Anthony had been receiving from the Van Halen brothers. The bass player, he felt, at least deserved an equal percentage of the stage money they earned from their nightly road performances. "Michael Anthony stands there on stage every night," insisted Hagar, "and works as hard as me, or anybody else out there. I thought it was chicken **** that he didn't get his fair share of the stage money. Well, Ray Danniels, to get his vote, went to Mike and said, 'I will get you your equal percentage of the touring money.' You want to know why he told him that? Because he knew I'd vote him in as manager. Ray went in and made the deal with the brothers to get Mikey his stage money, although he still didn't get anything from merchandising, the records or publishing. Mike got conned and made a deal with the devil himself, though he didn't have to do it that way. A long time ago, he could have come clean if he would have just stood up for his rights. But I'm not here to ridicule Mikey. He did what he felt he had to do." Hagar ended up signing a deal with Danniels, recognizing him as the manager for only the upcoming Balance album and tour, nothing else. Sammy's contract called for Ray to make 17 percent of net, not gross, like he originally wanted. Eddie and Alex Van Halen gave him the same percentage across the board for everything. Wrath On October 2, 1994, Eddie Van Halen made the daring statement that he was giving up alcohol for good. The announcement was met with considerable skepticism considering the fact the guitarist had failed three previous attempts to go into rehab to kick his habit. With the help of a therapist, he boldly declared his days of drinking were a thing of the past. "Eddie's affair had a lot to do with him making that statement," noted Hagar. "Valerie had been trying to get Eddie to quit drinking forever. When that incident happened, she had an ace on her. She said, 'Now,you're going to stop drinking. You are going to straighten up, or I'm leaving you.' Now I'm not quoting what I heard, I'm telling you that's what happened. Listen, I don't blame Valerie for taking a stance like that. She was the one positive influence in his life. For years, she had been trying to get him to stop drinking, and she absolutely refused to let him smoke in the house. Despite her best efforts though, "I never interfered in Valerie and Ed's marriage. What goes on between a couple is not anyone's business, unless they ask for your help. No one really understands the strange quirks between two people that makes their relationship work. It's like an invisible substance. Valerie was totally cool with me, and I think she was happy that I tried to help her husband. She knew I was a positive influence on him. A couple of times Valerie asked for my help when Eddie would tell her, 'Hey, I'm going to go get some drugs.' She'd ask me to stop him, and I'd go over and say, 'Man, come on Eddie. F**k, let's go into the studio and work.' About the only thing Valerie ever had against me was this competitive thing she felt I had with Eddie on stage. I was half of the star of the band. She used to push her husband to compete with me more, because she wanted him to be the man. That's the only thing that I ever felt from Valerie, and I understood it. Other than that, if she ever said I wasn't a positive influence on Edward, then I'd be very, very disappointed." Hagar's management deal with Ray Danniels was completely separate from the one he signed with Eddie, Alex, and Michael Anthony. The way Sammy had his contract structured did little to endear him to the manager. Ray's animosity toward the Red Rocker would escalate over the coming months as he carefully picked his engagements. The Canadian was determined to erode the singer's leadership role in Van Halen. Despite the contempt Sam felt from the band's new administrator, he carried on his business as usual. One such case involved his involvement in an all-star musical tribute to Elvis Presley. The performance, along with other musicians strongly influenced by The King, was going to be broadcast live on pay-per-view, October 8, from the Pyramid Arena in Memphis. "Johnny Barbis had called me up," disclosed Sammy, "and asked me if I could take part in an Elvis tribute. Bon Jovi had backed out, and he wanted to know if I'd take his place. Of course I said yes, because I was an Elvis freak. I took Guns 'N Roses drummer Matt Sorum with me and played 'Good Rockin Tonight,' the Elvis Presley tune Montrose played on their first album. I told Ed and Al what I was doing, and they didn't care. Eddie knew how much I loved Elvis. We used to lightheartedly debate about him all the time. One night when I lived in Malibu, Jon Bon Jovi, Eddie and myself talked about Elvis all night. Jon had bought a house down the street, so I invited him over. We ordered pizza, had some wine and argued the entire evening. Eddie did not dig Elvis Presley at all. He said, 'What the f**k man. He didn't write his own tunes, he made them f**ked up movies, why the f**k is he such a big star?' I'd say because Elvis was the most charismatic...and he'd cut me off and say, 'Bull****!'" Sammy's appearance at the event was the highlight of what had been a rather dismal year. Though he was not allowed to contribute "Good Rockin Tonight" to the Elvis tribute album released later, it really didn't matter to him. He got paid for doing something he would have done for free. Before Ray Danniels started his pitch battles with Hagar, Sammy fired off one of his last impudent shots. The manager dodged the bullet, but the message had clearly been sent. "Johnny Barbis said they wanted to pay me $25,000 for my appearance," replied Hagar. "He wanted to know who he should speak to about it. I phoned Ray and said, 'Call them up and make the deal.' I tried to throw him a bone, because I was trying to keep peace in the valley. Now, I had a totally separate arrangement with Ray. I had language put in my contract that stated he does not manage me, or anything I do as a solo artist, unless I chose to put a deal through his office. It was like, 'Ray, someone offered me this deal. Call them up and handle it for me.' If I chose to do that, then I would give him 10 percent of the deal. When I threw the deal his way, Ray goes, 'I don't want ten percent of anything. That's embarrassing to me.' Well anyway, I sent Ray a check for $2,500 after the show was over. He was such an asshole, he wouldn't even cash it." Van Halen should never have paid him 17 percent for anything. Those guys agreed to pay Ray for things he had no part of. I made it clear that he wouldn't get a thing from me for 5150, OU812, For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, and the Live album. That's another reason why he pulled all his **** behind my back. I retained my 30 percent without giving Ray Danniels a f**king penny, because he didn't deserve it, he's a criminal. I voted to give him percent of the new record and of the tour, just like everybody else, mainly because of Michael Anthony. I didn't screw him in any deal. I just gave him his percentage of what he did, not something he didn't do." The way 1994 had been going for Hagar, he never knew what to expect when he answered his telephone at any of his homes. Perhaps the biggest surprise call he received came from Mo Austin, the legendary head of Warner Bros. He phoned the Hagar residence in Mill Valley to let Sammy know that he was stepping down as president of the label. Austin had been forced out in a boardroom coup, orchestrated at corporate headquarters in New York. He was leaving the company he'd built into a powerhouse with his second in command, Lenny Waronker, at the first of the year. "You know," he remarked soberly, "I was the first guy in the band that Mo notified, when all this happened to him. He called me at home and said, 'I just wanted to tell you that I am stepping down. I didn't want you guys to hear it from the news media.' I said, 'Wow Mo, that breaks my heart.' He goes, 'Look, circumstances happened, and it's time for a change.' The news really upset me, because he had been such a strong ally of the band. I said, 'You aren't going to quit the business are you?' He laughed and said, 'No, what do you expect me to do, play golf? My whole life has been music. I'm going to take some time off, and see what I'm going to do next.' Anyway, during our conversation, Mo said, 'So, I don't know what you guys are going to do, if you're going to exercise your option, or what.' Now that news really startled me. You see, I'd always heard about these options Ed Leffler had made with the label. He always tried to put a key man clause in our contract that stated if Mo and Lenny left Warner Bros., we were automatic free agents." Austin's comment about Van Halen exercising their option intrigued Hagar. He called his bandmates and informed them of the shake-up at Warner Bros. Then he called Ray Danniels to let him know what was happening. Hagar says the manager was shocked that Mo Austin had personally called him with the news of his departure. This was the first he was hearing about it. Sammy also informed Danniels about a possible out clause in Van Halen's contract they could now exercise since the label president was leaving the company. "That was a real tricky thing," admitted Hagar. "Don Engel swore he never saw it in the contract, but Leffler always told me we had it. Mo's son, Michael, kind of hinted it was there as well. He said, 'Yeah, my dad says you guys are free agents if him and Lenny leave.' I'm positive Mo and Ed had some sort of a little agreement between them, but it went to Leffler's grave with him. With the lawyers going 'I don't know, I don't know,' there was no one to corroborate what actually happened. When I first brought it up, everybody started freaking out on me. Ray Danniels says, 'No, no, no, I read the contract.' I then told them there might have been a side deal somewhere. It ended up going nowhere." The gentleman's agreement might have come to light had the group upheld a request Austin made of them. He set up a meeting with Ray Danniels and the band to propose an option with them. If Van Halen could get the new album mixed, and the masters sent to Warner Bros. by late November, he would orchestrate a massive marketing campaign behind the record, guaranteeing huge sales over the holidays. "Mo came to the studio shortly after he called me," announced Sammy, "to listen to the record. He sat in a room with Ray, Eddie, Alex and myself and said, 'If you guys would do me a favor, can we get this record out by November?' He was looking straight at me when he said that. We said, 'Wow, that's pretty quick, but yeah, it's possible.' He said, 'If you can get this record out this year before I quit, I promise you I'll make this the biggest record that you've ever had. I will almost guarantee you an extra million records sold.' Now Mo wanted our record out during his last quarter because he got a percentage. We knew that, but at the same time, he was giving us an opportunity of a lifetime." With all the upheaval going on at Warner Bros. over Austin's forced departure, artists like Eric Clapton, Madonna, Fleetwood Mac and R.E.M threatened to leave the label. If Van Halen followed through on the outgoing president's proposal, they'd more than likely be free to go. Their contract they'd been given, their contract would be fulfilled, and they were free to go. In light of the chaos erupting throughout the entire Warner Bros. organization, finding a new home for the band seemed an attractive option, especially with Hollywood Records. The $50 million deal was still on the table. Sammy was excited by Austin's proposal the deal that had been offered. He even spent two weeks at the Canyon Ranch health resort in Tucson, Arizona, on a rigorous outdoor fitness program, to get in shape for the upcoming video shoot, "Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do)." "I thought we should get off Warner Bros.," said Hagar candidly, "because of all the changes they were going through. We always had a bad relationship with them to the point Ed Leffler thought it was time to move on. When Ray Danniels first came on board, we told him about the deal Ed had been working with Hollywood Records. We were going to start off with them as one big family. They were going to indemnify us for any lawsuits if there were any. With the Balance album coming out, our contract with Warner was finished. All we had to do now was put the record out and everyone would have a Merry Christmas." Hagar's plan for a happy holiday would never materialize. Ray Danniels thwarted the hopes of the outgoing Warner Bros. president by telling him it was impossible for Van Halen to have the record ready for a December release. The manager, he later learned, was more interested in currying favor with the new regime than doing what was in the best interest of Van Halen. In the coming year, Sammy would discover that under Danniels' principle style of management, two things were important to him. One was to nullify his leadership role in the band, and two, squeeze the profit centers in Van Halen today, not tomorrow. The Red Rocker may have survived the seven deadly sins of Ray and his disciples, but that round was nothing compared to the transgressions he would be crucified for the following year. on to chapter 20" |

All VAN HALEN Members To Attend Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony
According to Livedaily.com, after weeks of speculation, it appears that VAN HALEN members Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Michael Anthony and Sammy Hagar will be on hand for their band's March 12 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, according to Premiere Radio Networks. It remains unknown if any of the band members plan to appear on stage to accept the honor; at last count, Hagar and Anthony are on the outs with the Van Halen brothers, and Roth's status is up in the air following recent news that a planned 2007 summer reunion tour featuring Roth, the Van Halen brothers and Eddie's 15-year-old son, Wolfgang Van Halen, on bass, has been indefinitely postponed. Velvet Revolver is expected to perform during the ceremony in lieu of Van Halen.

But will they play?
Doubtful... will they even go up and accept the award together? VH1 is broadcasting this live this year because of the potential "fireworks".

SAMMY HAGAR Hoping For Peaceful Night At Rock Hall Induction
Launch Radio Networks has issued the following report from Bruce Simon: VAN HALEN will be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame one week from tonight (Monday, March 12th), and there's still some question as to who's going to attend the ceremony. Singers DAVID LEE ROTH and SAMMY HAGAR and former bassist Michael Anthony will all be there, and now Eddie and Alex Van Halen have reserved a table for themselves and their families, according to Premiere Radio Network. However, there is still some doubt that the Van Halen brothers will actually be at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Either way, there are still no plans for the band to perform. VELVET REVOLVER will take the stage in their place, with frontman Scott Weiland and guitarist Slash doing the actual induction speech for Van Halen. Hagar told us that he wants everything to go smoothly on the night, but he understands it might not: "I have my hopes and my fears, and my hopes are really that, you know, everyone's just respectful of each other, and happy for each other, and give credit where credit's due, that, you know, none of us would be there, probably, without each other. And hopefully, everybody's really happy and respectful, and (we) try to make a great thing out of it. And somebody trying to take the credit over someone else would be a bummer. That's my fear, is that, you know, it turns into an ugly thing, and there's an argument, and, you know, (we) start slinging hash at each other."

I actually read that loooong excerpt. It's very good stuff! I just have to wonder though... why does everybody (except Hagar) hate Michael Anthony? On stage he always seemed like Mr. Happy Go Lucky. It's not like he was demanding money or political power. It's not like he was a competing songwriter. It's not like he was a media whore. It's not like was was the babe magnet. He just seemed to be the stereotypical, mild mannered bassist who stood in the background.
Do you suppose it's the mullet? |
