Sammy Hagar Opens Up About His Last Phone Call With Eddie Van Halen: ‘Thank God We Connected’
Hagar said that it wasn’t easy getting in touch with Van Halen, but that he persisted in tracking down the musician’s phone number. “I was calling his brother, I was calling his manager, I was calling his friends, and I’d say, ‘Hey, tell Ed, give him my phone number. Tell him if he ever wants to talk to me, I really, really want to talk it out, help him and see what I can do,'” Hagar told Variety. “I [told them], ‘I want to be his friend, I want to bury the hatchet,’ but they never got it done.” Hagar and Van Halen were eventually connected through their mutual friend, comedian George Lopez. “George is a dear friend and he was Eddie’s friend and he said, ‘Sammy, Eddie’s in bad shape, he loves you brother, you need to reach out.’ I said, ‘Give me his f—in...
Tony Rice, Master Bluegrass Guitarist, Dies at 69
“Sometime during Christmas morning while making his coffee, our dear friend and guitar hero Tony Rice passed from this life and made his swift journey to his heavenly home,” Skaggs wrote on Facebook this weekend. “Many if not all of the Bluegrass guitar players of today would say that they cut their teeth on Tony Rice’s music. He loved hearing the next generation players play his licks. I think that’s where he got most of his joy as a player.” Tall and lean, and with an understated live presence that contrasted with the dynamism of his guitar, Rice had health problems over the past quarter-century. A muscle disorder around his vocal cords left him unable to sing onstage, and tennis elbow limited his playing. His last live guitar performance was in 2013, when he was ...

Paul Stanley has once again blasted people who are defiantly skeptical of mask wearing, saying they are posing a risk to themselves and to all those around them.

How to Succeed in Bizness… By Really, Really Trying: Our 1999 Limp Bizkit Cover Story
This article originally appeared in the August 1999 issue of SPIN. Fred Durst likes it to the right, with a swivel and bounce. “Yeah, like that, with the knee out. And do that thing with your hips,” he says, then pauses a moment, narrows his gaze, and rubs the furry soul patch on his chin. Five lithe female dancers in clingy black synthetic fibers stare back at him, hanging on his every word. “Like this?” one asks, doing that thing with her hips. “Nah, to the right,” he replies. “The right is dope; the left is wack!” The dancer complies, and Durst’s eyes widen. “Yeah, that’s the dope shit!” The Limp Bizkit frontman is choreographing his “Bizkettes” in a small dance rehearsal space near Times Square in New York City. There’s an old wooden piano in the corner, but the only music in the ...
