'Crazy Times' Listening Party
'Crazy Times' Listening Party
"Finally here it is. I can't wait for everyone to hear this record. I can't remember being this excited about a record coming out since '5150' or the first Chickenfoot record. Please listen first time, beginning to end while studying the cover art. I hope you feel & hear the pure Heart, Mind, Body & Soul of this record. it's truly a 3 lock box pulled from the deep of these crazy times, that we all have found ourselves in." -Sammy

Thank you to everyone who tuned into the 'Crazy Times' listening party!

Happy Anniversary 'Danger Zone'!
Happy Anniversary 'Danger Zone'!

1979 my solo career was just getting off the ground. we toured nonstop from 1976-1985. 'Danger Zone' was a pretty cool record. as a writer I was trying to stretch out, and coming from all over the place from a ripping "Love or Money" with Neal Schon on guitar, to the trippy, artsy-fartsy "Danger Zone" title track. I had Steve Perry and Neal Schon, who had just finished the Journey record, hanging around and singing and playing on this record. it was my last Capitol record before I signed with Geffen Records and had my first platinum solo record.

Filling in for the Foo Fighters @ Beale Street Music Fest
Filling in for the Foo Fighters @ Beale Street Music Fest

When we were asked by the promoter to fill in for the Foo Fighters at the Beale Street Music Festival, my first reaction was 'No fucking way!' We discussed it as a band, & we came up with 'Why not! Let's just go play music and you're at a big ass Circle party for those people, just do what we do!' Then with Dave Grohl's blessings we decided to do a broken down version of one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands. It felt appropriate. No rehearsal, After all this is rock 'n' roll and thats what it's all about. Enjoy. - Sammy
