It was just way too drawn out. I can't work like that.
"Samuel Roy" ""Sammy"" "Hagar", also known as "The Red Rocker", is an American rock vocalist, guitarist, songwriter and musician. Hagar came to prominence in the 1970s with the hard rock band Montrose (band)/Montrose. He afterwards launched a successful solo career, scoring an enduring hit in 1984 with "I Can't Drive 55".

On March 12, 2007, Hagar was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Van Halen.

It's kind of a groovy record, ... It's almost a little retro. It's not '80s-type fist-in-the-air Sammy Hagar -- well, a couple of songs are always like that because that's where I came from -- but it's almost more '70s rock.
When he called me, my stomach went wrench! ... [I thought], Maybe Dave and I can buddy up and all of a sudden I'll just get in a car at the end of the tour and drive down and see Eddie and Alex [Van Halen] and say, 'OK, guys, off your asses, let's go! We're going out and doing this.' .
Seeing what kind of person Dave is, now I know why they have never been able to do the reunion with him because he is unreasonable, ... He's a complete nut. He is not an average bear. He's on the moon. He's unreasonable and he's shot.
It was a horrible way to end the whole thing, ... So, I just say, 'Man, that's it for me. I'm not playing with people like this.'
He just was the most humble rock star I have ever met, besides having the best hands of any bass player in the history of rock and roll.
