yeah he sounds WAY better than the last few years, at least in this song. His voice has a strength it hasn't had in a while, good to hear!

FACTS!!!!! 💖💖💖💖💖😊💖💖💖💖💖 Especially Sammy. He's still got an amazing voice for his soon-to-be 77 year old self unlike a certain ex-singer that I used to love a lot who's named elsewhere. One hint: "Sammy throws a party, I am the party!" 2024 translation: Sammy's playing with everyone, the bastard named elsewhere plays with himself. And that's all that needs to be said. 😂

[@in2livinit]

@@bechtoea Agree completely. Saw him in 2018 when they toured with Journey. It was impossible not to see the joy in him playing, and he did a killer drum solo. RUSH lived by Midi sequencers and never hid it. Just noted he pioneered and innovated in that area to enable him to succeed, and he never gave up. MASS Props for that, and to his mates for all their support to him 👏 👍🤘

[@hunnieluvs]

I remember seeing Montrose play at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino ca. In 1976, I was 19 and sat right at the edge of the stage, I was about 5 feet away from Sammy, he poured himself a a small glass of what looked to be whiskey , tipped his glass to me and then proceeded to play Bad Motor Scooter.. It was a Great Concert and I continued to sit on the stage for the rest of the night❤️

[@dennisperin2989]

Thats awesome! Sammy is great, but to have seen the man who put him on the map in the first place? Love me some Ronnie Montrose! That sound! Space Station #5 4-Lf…good for you to have your “ 15 seconds”of fame! Mine was singing Youth Of The Nation at the POD show, They threw a wireless mic into the crowd, guess who caught it?

🤯 Mind Blown. I believe BOC played also that night. I was there with you. So to speak. I loved that place. I’d pass on the Forum or L.B.Arena to see the biggies at the Swing.

[@amberbates9641]

Two of my faves, the Red Rocker and Def Leppard.

[@mrsouthjersey4956]

First off, that kicked some major ass, mine included. I thoroughly enjoyed that wonderful rocking video. Now, being born in the 50's, you can say without much debate, that I have lived long enough (so far, I've lived in 8 different decades) that when it comes to just the "rock and roll game" and all that it has to offer and all that it has accomplished and given us... me personally, I have either seen, heard, read about, saw on TV or a movie screen and maybe once or twice even taken part of some of the most eye-opening, craziest, impressive, unforgettable, "shake your head in disbelief" accounts of musical genius, debauchery, decadence, sublime talent, upper tier craftsmanship in art, and the best and worse of what this thing called rock "music" has brought forth. Be it the million stories, the many deaths, the performances, the dime a dozen 1-hit wonders, the lifestyles, the money, the breakups, the "were getting the band back together", the common changing members of a band, the touring shenanigans, and just about anything else you can think of, throw that in the mix. THEY ALL, take a backseat to what Richard "Rick" Allen has accomplished in his career. Too me, it's the single most impressive thing that has ever come out of rock and roll in my eyes. A 1-armed drummer? And not missing a beat even after learning a new way of drumming with his legs and feet during a very short hiatus? Are you fucking kidding me? A much deserved tip of my cap and a ton of respect goes out too that man. It doesn't get any more "rock and roll" then beating on those skins and cymbals, laying down a thunderous beat and being "the backbone" of a world famous, highly successful band..... wile doing it with just 1 arm. ONE ARM! I don't see anything ever topping that. But then again, being a dinosaur that I am, my days of roaming the Earth are numbered so I won't see if anything does top it.

[@slyjokerg]

Well, it wasn't that brief of a hiatus, as there were four years between Pyromania and Hysteria, but it is indeed remarkable that a drummer was able to continue his career after losing an arm. I remember when they first started performing live again... they had a backup drummer on hand, just in case Rick couldn't actually pull it off. He didn't miss a beat, figuratively and literally.

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Sammy singing a Montrose song 48 years later. Ronnie Montrose could tear up a guitar and Sammy could match him with his voice! What an Icon song from the 70's. Pure Rock N Roll! And Def Leppard was damn good!

I'm in my mid 50s and seen some music history. There are only two people who stand out as being so astute to the importance of Public Relations and getting along with others, and therefore creating great music beyond themselves. Those two people are Paul McCartney and Sammy Hagar. I am sure there are others who deserve recognition, so please leave comments and don't bash me too harshly. I LOVE seeing certain musicians mixing it up with other bands and musicians in singular gigs or whatever. It's pure fun!
