SAMMY TALKS TO ST. LOUIS,
"THE MOST LOYAL CITY IN THE WORLD"

Compiled By Kevin C. Johnson Post-Dispatch Pop Music Critic

Red Rocker Sammy Hagar, staying true to giving just a little bit more to his
most loyal fans -- those in St. Louis -- agreed to something different to
pump up his concert Friday with David Lee Roth at UMB Bank Pavilion.

He took questions -- any question about anything -- from fans here. Redheads
responded eagerly to the invitation, posted on redrocker.com, to question

David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar
Blossom Music Center | Wednesday, May 29

The David Lee Roth/Sammy Hagar concert was promoted more like a wrestling
match than a rock 'n' roll concert. Even before the start of the tour (which
kicked off at Blossom), you had Dave and Sammy on Howard Stern throwing more

Everyman Hagar still thrills; Roth's flash out of style

By Brad Cawn
There's good news for disgruntled former Van Halen frontmen everywhere: If
David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar can make amends, there's hope for the happily
washed-up rock star in all of us.

An interesting marriage of convenience was on display Saturday: an odd
couple with no love lost between them, who yet needed each other to fill out
an amphitheater the size of the Tweeter Center. They also needed Eddie Van

Roth hot, Hagar solid in Van Halen classics

By David Lindquist

The rock 'n' roll showdown between Sammy Hagar and David Lee Roth featured
heavy hits but no defeating blows Sunday night at Verizon Wireless Music
Center.

So, because neither of the ex-Van Halen vocalists stumbled, any selection of

alternating headliners, turned in a technically flawless performance and
