Hagar, now a sort of modern-day Jimmy Buffett, has earned his place in rock n roll history as one of hard rock's premier front men who not only has an ample, strong, belting vocal range with soulful melody and tone, but his duality as a formidable lead guitarist and guitar-riff-monger puts him in a league shared with few others in terms of versatility and overall right to rock.
He now tours with Mike Anthony, former bassist for Van Halen.
He resides with his family in Mill Valley, CA.
Hagar is currently in a band called "Chickenfoot" with Michael Anthony, Red Hot Chili Peppers' drummer Chad Smith and guitarist Joe Satriani. Their self titled debut album was released to critical acclaim
Sammy Hagar is also known as the Red Rocker, due to the fact he almost always wears red shirts or plays a red guitar, or more likely that he has red hair?
Seems that Chickenfoot is on a hiatus as Joe Satriani has gone back to solo and CF has yet to follow up with a new LP.

All right now, here we go ...
Now we're gonna tell you a little story
About the way we like to party - take ya on a trip!
HIT IT!
That's right
I'm goin' way down south where the big blue agave grow,
Takin' a weekend trip down to Baja, Mexico!
Take your vitamin "T" with salt 'n lemon slice ...
I say,
One shot...Hey! Mas Tequila-
Two shots...Hey! que veneno-
Three shots...Arriba! Mas Tequila!
Hey! Hey!
She did a mean macarena to the funky cold medina
Behind a body shot and three margaritas.
She'll drink it straight from the bottle, terra cotta jug,
From a boda bag coppin' a major buzz.
I say,
One shot...Hey! Mas Tequila-
Two shots...Hey! que veneno-
Three shots...Arriba! Mas Tequila!
Hey! Hey!
Uno mas, bartender...one more...mas tequila!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Yo can drink the water, but don't ya eat the ice;
Take your vitamin "T" with salt 'n lemon slice!
I say,
One shot...Hey! Mas Tequila-
Two shots...Hey! que veneno-
Three shots...Arriba! Mas Tequila!
Hey! Hey!
One shot...Hey! more tequila!
Two shots...Hey! que veneno!
Three shots...Ay yi yi yi yi ...
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Mas Tequila!
No mas, no mas ....
The lyrics of Sammy Hagar's "Mas Tequila" depict a party anthem that describes how they enjoy their weekend trip to Baja, Mexico. The song kicks off by introducing the trip as a story and invites the listeners to join them on their trip. They describe traveling way down south where there are blue agaves, a type of cactus, from which tequila is made. They advise not to eat the ice but to take the vitamin "T" meaning Tequila, with salt and lemon slice. The catchy chorus then repeats the phrase one shot, two shots, three shots, arriba, mas tequila, which means more tequila, and encourages everyone to participate in the festivities.
The second verse tells the story of a woman doing the Macarena dance after drinking body shots and margaritas. They indicate that she can drink straight from a bottle, terra cotta jug, or boda bag, which is a type of wine bag. The song ends by repeating the same lyrics with a few variations such as "one shot more tequila" and "no mas" indicating that they have had enough for the night.
Overall, the song is quite straightforward, filled with party vibes, and focuses on the consumption of alcohol, specifically tequila. The lyrics depict the people's carefree attitude and willingness to let loose and have fun without any inhibitions.

Sammy is not only a very talented musician, he just always has fun.
Isn't that what life is all about?
@charlesharper2357
Stupid thing to say.
He was both talented and fun.
I saw him live and unscheduled in Cabo in 1994...utterly fantastic!
@b-radsadventures6846
So much better than "today's" "music" and "entertainers." Keep showing 'em how it is done, guys!
@DonMae-lr5to
I will never forget this song because Sammy's bodyguards asked us if we wanted to go backstage And I said hell yeah. He said not you your girl... I went back to the third row seat I had and all of a sudden she comes out as the shot girl passing out Cabo Wabo shots in a bikini. Totally awesome
