what happened to the waboritas? I love hagar his live cd from a couple years ago was awesome. Loved him in Van halen too
Huge Hagar fan. This sound has a lot of classic Red Rocker vibe to it. It's a pretty impressive band as well. Joe Satriani and Michael Anthony are as good a guitar playing duo as you can get. Not a huge Peppers fan but Smith sounds like he's made the switch from alternative to rock pretty easily. When I bought Jay's Capn Eli novels on amazon I needed more to qualify for the free shipping and ended up grabbing Sammy's essential red CD. It quickly became one of my favorites. It spans virtually his entire career starting with one of his first hits "Bad Motor Scooter" right through the final track "Mas Tequila" which has become a staple song at his Cabo Wabo bar in Mexico, based on the success of his tequila brand of the same name. Not surprised to see him touring again since he sold majority share in the company a year or so ago, (sold 80% of the company for $80 million). I've seen him 4 or 5 times and you can tell this guy simply loves to perform. I've never seen a bad show. You never know what he'll sing. Might have to catch his show in Cambridge if I can.
GFY!!!
I am going to try and get my tickets in the morning for the Chicago show.

WOW!!! Thanks for the link toysrus. I'm a huge Sammy fan (how could anyone guess, right?) and I didn't know anything about this. Awesome sound. I can't wait for product. My best friend has always been a fan of Sammys, but is a huge fan of Joe Santriani so he's going to freak when he hears this. I AM PUMPED!!!![]()
I was playing "Oh Yeah" to my best friend in Chicago last night over the phone and we were both proclaiming afterwards...OH YEAH! I am so ready for this new album. I predict platinum sales for this CD. You have scores of Sammy fans; you have tons of frustrated Van Halen fans; and you have the nonstop allegiance of Santriani fans. This record will be huge. Michael Anthony's back harmonies and bass contributions were incredible. I've been missing those since Van Halen slipped off the deep end. We have found, in my eyes, a suitable replacement.![]()
Got my tickets this morning, Friday May 22nd show at the Park West in Chicago. I can't wait the show should be awesome.

You'll have to give us a concert report afterwards! I'm down in Louisville, so I'll have to wait for the album tour before they get here. This appears to be all pre-promo stuff which I think is working great. I haven't been this pumped for a new band in a long, long, time.
