Sammy Hagar & The Circle were guests on The Howard Stern Show this morning, and former Van Halen frontman Hagar told Stern that he has no hard feelings for his predecessor in the band, David Lee Roth.

Said Hagar, "I gotta get something straight about Dave. I actually like the guy, he doesn't like me. He's entertaining - what a goof-ball - to me, he entertains me. When I see him, I go, 'look at this guy, now look at him, look what he's doing', it's entertainment, you know."

Check out the video footage below:Meanwhile, The Circle/ex-Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony confirmed on the program that he was approached by Van Halen management about a possible reunion.

"I was actually contacted by their management last October, to see if I would be interested in something," Michael revealed. "And that's basically as far as it went. I think they were trying to put something together on their end, management was, and something broke down on their end and the plug got pulled."

Sammy Hagar & The Circle have released a video for "Can't Hang", featured their upcoming debut album of original material, Space Between, which can be pre-ordered here and will be released on May 10th through BMG.

The band, comprised of Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Sammy Hagar and bassist Michael Anthony, drummer Jason Bonham and guitarist Vic Johnson, will kick off their 23-city North American beginning on April 19th in Reno, NV and extending through June 7th in Chicago, IL. Rock greats Vince Neil and Night Ranger will join the tour as special guests on select dates of the tour. Get tickets here. Tour itinerary is listed below.

Every ticket purchased to the North American tour will include one (1) CD copy of the new album Space Between (The Lewiston, NY show at ArtPark is not part of this offer). In addition, a digital copy of Space Between will also be delivered to customers who redeem the CD. Ticket purchasers will receive instructions on how to redeem their copy that will be mailed to them on May 10th.

Pre-order the album Space Between now and receive an instant download of “Trust Fund Baby”. Fans can also watch a lyric video for the track, below.

Hagar explained, “The 10 songs on the ‘Space Between’ are not just a bunch of new songs grouped together on an album. They were sewn together conceptually for a complete mental, emotional and physical experience (kind of a Three Lock Box). Once I had the overall vision, the lyrics and music began to just flow through me.”

With the upcoming release of Space Between, the band harnesses the depth of their artistic experiences and seminal collaborative sound with Hagar's prolific writing vein to produce an album that builds and explodes, song after song, around the concepts of money, greed, enlightenment and truth.

Formed in 2014, the acclaimed supergroup featuring Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Sammy Hagar and bassist Michael Anthony, drummer Jason Bonham and guitarist Vic Johnson, quickly established themselves as one of the most emphatic and exciting live acts on tour today, seamlessly ripping through career-spanning hits from Montrose, Van Halen, Sammy Hagar and The Waboritas and Led Zeppelin.

BMG signed a worldwide label deal with Sammy Hagar & The Circle for the new album, Space Between, and will also include select Hagar catalog titles.
