SAMMY HAGAR Says THE WABOS Will Be "Putting Out Something This Year"
SAMMY HAGAR (CHICKENFOOT, ex-VAN HALEN, MONTROSE) is celebrating the
third anniversary of his Cabo Wabo Cantina in Miracle Mile Shops at
Planet Hollywood Resort in Las Vegas. On February 9th Hagar and his band
CABO UNO will perform a free show. Las Vegas Magazine’s Kiko Miyasato
chatted with Hagar about the milestone and what else is in store this
year.
Here are a few excerpts from the chat:
Q: What’s in store for you in 2013?
A: "I’m in the studio right now with my band,
THE WABOS, and we’re
rehearsing and writing songs. We’re putting something out this year and
we’ll probably go out and do 25-30 shows. We’re opening another Cabo
Wabo in
Los Angeles at Hollywood and Vine. I would like to do a lifestyle cookbook with some of my chef friends."
Q: What is it about the beach lifestyle that you love?
A: "It’s a state of mind for sure, and I just love the ocean; I love
my feet in the sand. I’m a beach nut, a sun worshipper. I can’t help
it. I would rather be at (the beach) than anywhere else. Man, put me on
that beach with a chair and a cocktail … I just love it, I can’t get
enough of it."
