Sammy Hagar: I Was Asked To join Crue & Aerosmith

[Pete]

Sammy Hagar has said he was asked to join both Motley Crue and Aerosmith.

Talking to forbes.com, the one-time Van Halen frontman (who’s now the vocalist with Chickenfoot) said:

“I was asked at one time to be in Motley Crue. I was asked at one time to be in Pantera by their managers. I was asked to be in Velvet Revolver when Scott Weiland quit and went back to the Stone Temple Pilots. I was waiting to be asked to be in Led Zeppelin to say no, since they were the greatest band on earth and nobody could replace Robert Plant. I was asked to be in Aerosmith and I said no. Certain bands and certain front man singers are more difficult to replace than others. Steven Tyler and that band have stayed together for 40 years and you don’t to walk into something like that.”

You have any proof he's bullshitting. Why would he say something that would be so easy to disprove just by asking any of those groups.

I'm a third of the way through Sammy's bio, and it is, if nothing else, a very entertaining read.

Although not a big Sammy fan, I can see this.

One of the more respected front men in the industry.

Let's face it, and again, although not a fan...look what
he did for the Van Halen brothers.

To make statements such as this is most certainly
believeable in my mind. Hagar would have got the
job done in either of the venues.

Besides, anyone could have filled the Crue shoes
and a trained monkey could have filled in for Tyler
as they would NOT have allowed themselves to
fall off the stage!.......ohhhh okay, they may have
gotten their fur caught in the microphone stand...SO WHAT?...
It would have looked and sounded the same!

Ha, personaly, I'd love to see Hagar sit in for Brian Johnson
and then maybe...just Mayyyyyyybeeee...we could all sing
along with the vocals to the next AC/DC song that comes out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

More believable than being abducted by aliens.
