- With over 40 years in the music business, Sammy Hagar doesn't really need an introduction. The Red Rocker dropped by the Austin studio to talk music, tequila, fame and giving back. He is out on the road touring with his band The Circle. www.redrocker.com/home

Just realized that I’ll click on pretty much any interview with Sammy Hagar.
same here
LOL he is entertaining
Yep same...i cant believe ill be 42 in aug and listened to his music since i can remember...probably about 8 y.o....but i can say i never gave him a chance. I always thought...sadly in my ignorance...that david lee roth was the better singer. But now i realize although dave was a great showman and runnin with the devil will always remind me of my youth...sammy was and.is a great singer and all.around great guy. DLR is not such a great guy. Egocentric as hell and really has reality fucked up about how it was back then lol
@@majesstic777 They are two different bands, i have no problem enjoying both.
@@rogerc23 agreed
Wait...is Sammy 71 years old?! REALLY? First of all, he looks great and is sharp as heck for ANY 71 year old. Secondly, considering a life on the road, a life in music, a life with probably a fair amount of partying, WOW. He looks and sounds great! I'm impressed.
He's 50% " Dago " we age well !! Born in beautiful Monterey, Ca. GREAT guy and talent !
@@depaola63 This makes sense...I'm 50% Italian. We age well;)
@@depaola63 Hey, how did your Day Go?
WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!!! :)
He really takes care of himself to. He said he works out walks on the beach a lot.
He found the fountain of youth twice 😂😂
This is by far one of the best Sammy Hagar interviews I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to or watching. He took it to a whole different level
Sam has had many fantastic interviews that covered all the details.
Yet I really loved this one. Lance and Sam really complemented each other and this was a gem.
Sammy at 71 has more energy and younger than most people I know half his age! Dude is amazing!
Fuck yeah. Respect to you fo knowing and saing that. He is 74 now! NUts!!!
Sam's enthusiasm and happiness is infectious
Man Sammy is just got his shit together . Such an interesting guy with a big heart .
i like that he says when ya write songs just write from your heart, cool shit , good advice
Sammy always reminds me of the beach and fun. I would be so flattered to have a fraction of that influence on people. He’s just a great man and I’m so thankful he found his way to VH regardless of how it ended. The Sammy years of VH was pure nuclear!
Lance is 47 and Sammy's 71 and they look the same age.
Dan Maler No they don’t, mate. Lance looks older lol
@@estudiandoaprendo4365 I was gonna say the same thing
Lance Cheats Sammy Defeats ... Legend
Crazy how that works. I hate to talk bad about people like that but there is a lady who is a cashier at a gas station up the road, she was talking to someone and said something about how someone thought she was 60 years old and she’s 38 just a years older then me but she looks older then my mother.
Who are the 6 maniacs that gave this a thumbs down? Lance is a TERRIFIC interviewer, and Sammy is enthusiasm personified. Great stuff.
Sammy looks younger than Lance
After hearing Sammy talk to the hunger in this world it reminds me of what Eddie said at the concerts back in the day “people feeding people the way it should be uno” just got mad respect for Sammy doing that.
Having attended high school with David Lee Roth, I can honestly say that I would rather hang out with Sammy any day. Great energy, great sense of humor and down to earth as hell. Lance, keep doing what you’re doing...great interviews of fascinating people. You were made to inspire other humans, so keep it coming. Cheers! 👍
B.A.R.F.
"Inspire" with what ....CHEATING ..??
Liar.
We're you good friends with David Lee Roth?
hazor777 to be fair everybody was cheating
I'm glad that Sammy was able to get Jason some help with his drinking. No, Jason is not his dad, but he's as close as anyone will ever get in my lifetime. Guy did a great job with the 3 remaining members of Zeppelin in '07. Sammy is just a great guy all around, which is why he has so many good friends and people constantly say great things about him.
I hadnt heard that about Jason. Boy, John was a hard core drunk.
Having watched this interview and when Joe Rogan interviewed David Lee Roth I can say unequivocally that i would much rather hang with Sammy and his high-energy than David and his ego maniac bipolar disorder.
Ah another wannabe Van Halen fan
Yeah,I could hang out with Sammy on the beach all day,Dave I would be gone in 5min.
@@iddddaduncan that sounds so gay wouldn't you rather hang out at a beach with some hot chicks instead of 70 year old fart
@@robertschaffer1598 the babes would be there with sammy
I just heard on the radio the other day that David Lee Roth went to a party full of kids, and they did not know who he was, and kicked him out. One thing I would not do, is hang out with Rogan. I love his commenting on UFC, but I hate his brain outside of that. He has a lot of that hollywood nut case in him.
"Never drink anything you can't see through" -EVH
Yea and howd that work out for him
@@bwaters735 Maybe he was speaking from bad expierence with drinking what he could not see through.
@@vanmanrick1 astute observation
I prefer DLR as the VH singer in the 70's but I could hang with Sammy 24/7 he has won at life. If I had to drive coast to coast with Roth, I'd kick him out in 20 miles. Sammy you'd want to turn around and drive back at the end.
What's Sammy's youth secret? He looks 20 years younger
Dude...this was the best interview yet....love cycling but music 🎸 heros takes it to another level...well done.
Great interview Lance, Sammy is so genuine and down to earth, doesn’t hold back, but very honest and great role model on what’s required to make it, hard work....and practice.....practice......practice and be humble
One of the BEST interviews with Sammy Hagar ever. I'm a lifelong fan of Sammy but now I'm also a fan of Lance's interviews. I'm proud to say that I'm now a Subscriber.
Great Interview!!! Rock, Music, Bikes, Tequila, 20 some minutes realized that was Lance!!! my age man, my generation Gen X Power with the great Red Rocker!!! Awesame!!!
One interview I NEVER expected to watch. Met Sammy at the record store I worked at in Fort Worth in 1978 and followed his music since seeing Montrose in 1973 and of course know all about Armstrong.......Very interesting guys......together..........
He is such a hardworking artist. And sooooooo loyal to his fans
Hard- Road so hard to get a reply from him on Instagram 😭😭 tho he’s always active with his fans on social media
Great job with this interview! I always felt Valierie, Edward's ex-wife, had more rough things to say about Edward's behavior in her book than Sammy did in his. There are so many videos on You Tube where you can actually see/ hear Sammy telling Edward to stop smoking or to do some kind of behavior mod that Edward would just ignore him. So, big props to Sammy for trying to keep that band going. Love all things Sammy--I love Roth years too but VH's best days are behind them, sadly.
Nothing sad about it. They came they rocked they conquered.
Love Sammy. The guy has aged well, still sounds great, has integrity, treats his fans like gold, and is one guy that I'd like to just hang with and not pepper him with questions, but just bullshit. I'll tell you what makes Howard such a great interviewer: he is genuinely curious about the people that he is interviewing, and it comes across as that.
.. And he was the best singer in Van Halen. You forgot to mention that.
@@grungil7570 LOL. I don't get into that argument with people. I stay far away from making comments like that now. It's a useless argument to begin with.
@@JokersWild70 Just trying to recrute one more to Van Hagar Club. At least, i tried.
Been to his spot in Cabo Mexico- Awesome Good times! After 2am I don’t remember much
Never a bad interview.....
Loved all his work. Chicken foot is the best 4 players
to see live!
I read this guy's book and it was great.
He just sounds like he knows how to do it right.
He has a great attitude and you can see it right away.
No bullshit here.
I have to agree with you Rob.... especially after reading his book RED......I admire him so much more and have to listen to him always.....puts a smile always on my face...
had no idea Lance Armstrong had a podcast! good sh*t! followed a Sammy youtube trail and arrived here - great interview and Lance you're great at this! nice work I'm subscribed.
Welcome. You dont want to miss out on the cycling break downs and the up coming TDF coverage.
I thought that was him, too. I thought I had a thumb spazz, and moved on to a new video
Yeah, I didn't know Lance had this podcast. I found this through searching Sammy.
Wow. What an exceptional interview. Lance really brought the most out of Sammy. This really hit it.
Great interview, never knew Sammy like this, he’s awesome.
Of course those first VH albums are untouchable. However Sammy helped the band expand thier fan base by writing different styles of rock songwriting that D.L.R wouldn't be able to pull off. Much respect!
youre right! 5150 in 1986 really got the ladies into VH total party/prom music
@@sidian911 5150 was a really good album. I thought the title track should have been a single. Dreams and Love Comes Walking In are standout tracks for me as well!
This is probably the most relaxed that Sammy has been in an interview in a long time.
Just a couple of forward thinking gentlemen! Inspiring conversation I too!I come from the same mold It amazes me how contagious it can be. We need more Lance and Sammy's in this world! Keeping real!
Good job Lance. You are a good interviewer. I like your branching out into topics other than cycling.
I love Sammy! He's absolutely the coolest Rockstar on the planet.
I think this was the best yet. Truly enjoyable to see two icons in their own right tossing interesting conversation back and forth!
Well, one icon who cleanly earned everything he got, unlike narcissistic, sociopath, superdick Lance. Lance is no icon to anyone with integrity.
Love this interview, Sammy is amazing and what a success. I also have to say what an awesome job you did Lance with the interview, You are so natural and relatable. I have been a fan of yours from the beginning and a supporter through the best an worst of your career and as contrite as this my sound I am so proud of how you have handled the controversy and the direction you have taken your life. You will always be a seven time Tour De France winner and a winner in life!
This is the best interview you've ever done!
Agreed!! Amazing!!
Sammy is a very cool guy, Van Halen with him was a great band, but in my opinion Van Halen with D.L.Roth was a legendary band, and Eddy was the most innovating during this years :)
Definitely
And Sammy is coherent, friendly and down to earth. Listening to DLR will make your ears bleed!.
Love both Lance and Sammy!! Lance is such a talent...I never thought he would have a podcast, but he is good at anything he does, so I am not surprised that his podcast is excellent!
Wow, he looks amazing for 71
Best one ever!!! Sammy is awesome.
Sammy always seems to be quick to give praise to other people. I appreciate that
I had no idea LA was doing podcasts. Having Sammy on as a guest doesn't hurt, that's for sure. Love listening to his stories. Great dude.
Rock Candy Baby......Montrose was Major Bad Ass Band with Sammy
As kids in the 80's, cruising around in our cars like a remake of "American Graffiti", (the movie about 1962 cruising), we used to yell out at a cute gal walking the sidewalk, "I got candy baaaabaay, ----hot sweet and stickaaaay!"
Those were the days man. 62 must have been better.
EarthSurferUSA wrong lyrics
How is this man 71 years old??????!!!! I need your secret!
Man i literally just heard that and saw your comment. This is crazy, he is more happy and energetic about everything that I have ever been about anything.
how?
I love Sam's energy. Glad he made peace with Edward before he passed.
SAMMY Is the greatest ..he is like the COMMANDER and CHIEF of ROCK.
I say this all the time. He sings anything and he makes you BELIEVE. He looks AMAZING!
Best comment ever
Sammy Hagar, just love ❤️ that humble giving man.
Lance, I’m hooked on your show. Great work
buuuulllshit! Sammy is a nightmare when he's not on camera.
I loved Austin City Limits as a kid. The Stevie Ray Vaughan shows were awesome. I think he played twice. I was glued to the tv if someone I liked was on there.
I hope Eddie and him were able to get things good before he passed.
All the great things that made money that happened to Sammy, (like his Tequila),---could not happen without the greatness of our free market. We we are free to compete,--the sky is the limit. My little business took off for a while, like it had a life of it's own. It was the most exciting thing that ever happened to me, and it is special.
Lance. Next guest please, please, please........Jerry Cantrell.
Awesome interview, nice work Lance!
I cant drive 55.....listening to this podcast was time well spent
I like Sammy. Thanks for the interview.
71 - "Dam" he looks late 40s it's the rock blood ... Dug this view !😁 What a heart giving back to food bank & charities close to his heart. I'm now going to have to buy Sammys book. As he speaks of his days & Eddy it's odd how you can spend your youth with a band become closer than family and end up never speaking again as if you never had been, I spent my entire youth with my old dudes and I haven't heard from them now for what 21 yrs. Infact, Gary Cherone, use to warm my ass up way back in our day with The Dream til he met Nuno, formed Exstreem, he wasn't going anywhere, had that hit wonder timing , sadly it didn't work for him and Halen . I actually think Halen blew up when they got the voice & talented dude Sammy thats, thats, its over sadly all good things come to an end - Life has to go on its timing , time is worth all the money in the world, cherish it. Best of luck Lance! Peace & Eat Cake ❤ Auto Correct sux"s !! Edit -😊
71 !!!! I want what he's having.
Make it a double
He still admits to enjoying a "bump" now and then too!
@Bill Ding the constructor arm and hammer baking soda.it makes your teeth whiter as well.
@Bill Ding the constructor try it you will see. Sammy has fine teeth
He has a Fithty year old son!!!!!!
The big 5o
1984 was my first Concert Ever! Was a great show!
My first rock concert was OU812 tour.
1984 was with Roth
@@pattibaker8003 I know, I was there thanks.
This was the most enjoyable podcast of the year. 🙂
Sammy is so cool, I love his talking in interviews..
Awesome interview ! what a character
Awesome interview Lance. First time I saw Van Halen was 84. I was 12 in parachute pants . Lol
This is the best interview I have ever seen
So, just started watching this episode; had to pause it... 71? WTF!!!
exactly
Dude is a vampire! Amazing!
@@wedu Stick to biking.
@@wedu ...That 50% Italian in him !!
Sammys a cool dude.
This was a really enjoyable podcast
Sammy is spot on, with Grunge they took the humor out of music, Fuck grunge, the world is dark enough without even music making you depressed
Wow! Thank interview was amazing! I couldn’t stop watching! Sammy made it easy. Great job, Lance!
This makes me want to go out and get Sammys book called "Red". I think it will be very interesting.
It's a good book. Bought it in Boston...read it on the flight back to Scotland.
Please do go get it....it's awesome book.....I read it and it made me realize how hard he worked!...
I've read it 3 times!!
SO MANY LIES IN HIS BOOK...WANT PROOF? LOL.
No disrespect to roth, but when sammy came into the band. He made them great. Weither it was guitar play and or lyrics, he bought a new style to van halen. Van halen then had 4 great people who had amazing talent. All amazing musicians!
Best podcast ever !! Thank you.
Wreckless!! An old Sammy single that he likely forgot about. Going to see his last show of 2019 tour!!!!
Great interview!
36:27 This describes me - just barely making it in an expensive city to live in. Doing less well than my father who could at least help me to buy a car in the 80s. I can't even do that for my kids. Some of us have never recovered from the local depression in Las Vegas.
@@LETSTALKENTERTAINMENT -- Yes. The sad thing is that middle class people like me are disappearing, one day it's only going to be be poverty level working class and billionaires. The 16 continuous months of unemployment in 2008-2009 did not help me at all... will never pay off my house or get to retire.
Sammy is a Class Act
I was at that show Lance.
1984 Reunion Arena. I was 13. There were 3shows.
I went to the Sunday night show. I wore parachute pants as well,lol, and a “rising sun” muscle shirt! Lol
Some shitty band called The Velcro’s opened. We were 10th row center stage! I didn’t blink for 2 hours and didn’t hear well for 3 days!
Love the RED ROCKER!
This is a freaking awesome interview!
It is weird to be watching youtube interviews nowadays and learn that all kinds of famous people are hard rock fans. Who knew Lance Armstrong was a Van Halen fan? Same with Joe Rogan and Bill Burr.
Had no idea Lance was doing this. Good to see him back in the public.
awesome interview for both. Kudos Sammy for being such a rockstar (literally). Lance, you're killing. You'll take over Howard's job soon...
Wow great interview, I loved it!
I would like Lance to interview Ted Nugent next.
Uhhh, because Hagar seems pretty down to Earth and regular and normal, while Ted Nugent has gone off the deep end and is a total maniac nutjob with deep-seated hatred and pre-judgment of other people? Is that why? No thanks. Nugent needs a muzzle. And some heavy medication.
I loved Ted on Joe Rogan...that would be interesting
there was an old band called The Cyrkle, had a hit Red Rubber Ball, writen by Paul Simon
I saw them in concert. They opened for The Beatles at Dodger Stadium 1966!
Lance can't ride 55... Good interview, fun chat!
Well, if he does the blood doping then he can. 😄
so great watching the 2 of you chat. Better than @NBC or any TV. Please keep this crap going.
If I could meet and hang out with two celebrities it would be Sammy Hagar and Jack Nicholson. They're awesome.
Two of my favorite people.
Thoroughly enjoyable.
Thanks Lance...Love the interview with Sammy
Great show. Sammy is a STUD.
lame
Lots of great stories I haven’t heard anywhere else 👍🏻
Sammy is an amazing guy!
Sammy your 11 years older than me and I've been a fan since you started imagine that where the f*** does the time go bro
Any band who use to hang with Kinison and is still alive today, is beyond amazing.
He said he didn’t graduate high school but his graduation picture is in his book Red.
Got blitzed on a bottle of Gusano Rojo in Cozumel many moons ago...I don't think I've had tequila since.
I love DLR, but Sam is really freaking cool.... how Eddie did not get along with this guy is beyond me.
Eddie is not a real friendly guy. He has a problem with most people.
@@JokersWild70 EVH had massive anxiety, hence the drugs & booze. He was a quite guy who invented his own style of guitar playing. He was a cream puff of a nice guy. everyone loved him but when he was under the influence, demons would surface.
