  Sammy Hagar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Samuel Roy Hagar (born October 13, 1947 in Monterey, California, USA), better known as Sammy Hagar, (aka "The Red Rocker") is a U.S. rock guitarist, singer, composer and former member of Van Halen, and of the early 70s rock band Montrose.
Hagar disagreed with the decision to record two new tracks on the Twister soundtrack, after the band had agreed to take time off after their 1995 world tour, and he maintained his dislike of a greatest hits record at that point in the band's career.
Hagar pulled together his new solo band, called The Waboritas, consisting again of David Lauser on drums, as well as former keyboardist Jesse Harms, and new to the mix was former Busboys guitarist Vic Johnson, and former Tommy Tutone bassist Mona.

 MTV News | Sammy Hagar Calls Reunion With Van Halen 'Inevitable'
Hagar confessed that he hasn't spoken with either of the Van Halen brothers in quite some time, though bassist Michael Anthony has been joining him onstage of late.
Hagar joined Van Halen in 1986 when Roth, the band's original, highly charismatic frontman whose voice soared over such early hits as "Runnin' With the Devil," "Panama" and "Hot for Teacher", left (or was fired, depending on which story you believe) to pursue a then-burgeoning solo career.
Hagar's seemingly more congruent personal and musical chemistry with guitar hero Eddie helped take the band to its greatest commercial heights, though admittedly many fans and critics alike long held out hope for a reunion with Diamond Dave.
