Sammy Hagar, Whitesnake and Night Ranger Announce Summer Tour
Five out of all five people I spoke to at this past summer’s Hellfest, an extremely scientific study if ever there was one, agreed unanimously: Whitesnake fucking owned that shit! Their performance, most unexpectedly, was a festival highlight! And that on the same day Gojira, Emperor, Def Leppard, Kiss and others played, too.
The ‘Snake, Sammy Hagar (as Sammy Hagar and The Circle) and Night Ranger just announced a U.S. summer tour of Amphitheaters and yo, who wants to give me free tickets to this so I can go? I’ve somehow never seen Sammy live in any capacity and I have to imagine that’s super fun, and I developed a late-in-life obsession with Night Ranger a couple of years back. Win/win/win! I might even pay.
