Sammy Hagar Blasts Alex Van Halen For Leaving ‘Van Hagar’ Era Out Of Memoir

SHARE NOW

Sammy Hagar recently took to Instagram to criticize Alex Van Halen for leaving the “Van Hagar” era out of his memoir, “Brothers.”

Hagar accused Alex of “blasphemy” for ignoring the highly successful run he had with Van Halen.

The memoir focuses on Alex’s life and times with Eddie Van Halen, but ends with the original departure of David Lee Roth in 1985.

“What happened after Dave left is not the same band. … The magic was in the first years, when we didn’t know what we were doing; when we were willing to try anything,” explained Alex.

After Hagar posted a picture from 1991 on Instagram that showed himself and Eddie Van Halen heading for the stage before a show, a fan wrote, “Most purists believe VH ended with DLR,” prompting a terse response from Hagar.
