SAMMY HAGAR (CHICKENFOOT, ex-VAN HALEN, MONTROSE) hosted the second Sammy's Beach Bar Rum Bash in Las Vegas, NV last night, August 25 at Club Vinyl. Hagar has released the following on the night:

“Wow, what a great party in Vegas last night! Here it is 10AM and I'm still lying in bed this morning - I almost bit off more than I could chew flying in from Orlando, filming two TV shows and partying with 250 Redheads. Luckily we had the rum to wash it down!

What I love about the beach rum parties we've been throwing is that I get a chance to mingle with the fans - lots of hugs and photos all around - it's kind of like a long, big meet and greet! It's different from when I play a concert and I can't spend time doing toasts and shots and getting our buzz on together. We're learning with you as we go how to throw these parties and I like it and want to do more! Unfortunately, we found out last minute that Nevada state law wouldn't let me mix and the serve the drinks so I had to oversee the bartenders making my custom rum concoctions. I wish they would have let us sell more tickets, but this was the first event at this brand new venue and they didn't know what capacity was. All in all, I am having a blast with you and it's a learning process how to throw these parties!

Looking forward to tonight at the Vegas Rocks! Award Show - AXS TV will be broadcasting live and giving away my autographed guitar so tune in and check it out starting at 8pm PT (11PM ET).

PS: My favorite part of the night was seeing Mona play that upright bass that was bigger than her. It was a real Hawaiian twist on the Wabos as we tore through ‘Fight For Your Right’, ‘Red Voodoo’, and ‘Cabowaboville’ (hearing everyone sing along to that was a blast!).”

Video of Hagar performing the track ‘Red Voodoo’ at the show can be seen below:
