'80s Music Legend, 77, Blows Fans Away with Rockin' Performance
One of the most iconic voices of 80s rock and metal is former Van Halen singer Sammy Hagar.
His impressive career, starting with the band Montrose, led him to solo career success, and eventually, his role as the lead singer of Van Halen from 1985, all the way to 2005, with a hiatus from the band in between. Hagar has been a part of some of the bands most iconic moments, including four platinum chart-topping albums.
Delighting fans with iconic songs like "Why Can't This Be Love," Hagar cemented himself as an important figure in rock history, and as it turns out, he's still got it. Just check out this clip from one of his recent performances in Vegas.
The performance shows Hagar in top Van Halen form, performing like he's young again, and sounding great too. Fans showed their amazement in the comments.
"Sammy is a cool dude, and thanks for your time and music."
"There will never be another one like Sammy."
"Gotta love Sammy!!!!"
It's good to see that Sammy's music is still getting people pumped like it always has. He's currently on residency in Las Vegas, set to perform tonight. Sounds like it will be a great time!
