Sammy Hagar to tour with Kenny Chesney

Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famer and former Van Halen front man Sammy Hagar, will be joining Kenny Chesney for at least 7 stops along Chesney’s Poets & Pirates Stadium tour, it was announced today. Starting May 10, 2008, Hagar will begin his jaunt in Baltimore, MD for what is sure to be a fun time with Chesney and many of his other friends, including Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, LeAnn Rimes, Gary Allan, Luke Bryan and Big & Rich. From there, Sammy will be rocking on with Chesney to Cleveland, OH; Phoenix, AZ; Nashville, TN; Atlanta, GA; Philadelphia, PA; until he makes his way to the already sold out Foxboro, MA show!

Hagar looks forward to the opportunities that this tour will afford him to bring his music and the partying Cabo Wabo lifestyle to nearly a million new fans across the country in packed stadiums.

“I haven’t had the opportunity to play in front of stadium crowds —like I will be on this tour—since my days of headlining the Texas Jams and playing with Van Halen the last time we toured as a group,” says Hagar. “Live sold-out stadium shows like this is what I built my career on and I am looking at this as a challenging opportunity to rock them just like I used to. With millions of potential new young fans, I couldn’t be more excited to bring my show to town!”
