Sammy Hagar Autograph Goof
« on: August 18, 2020, 07:05:17 PM »
So I have a fondness for autographs that I've talked about here, and some of you might remember the Weiland autograph debacle here which Brett reported on but the article disappeared later (never was sure why).  In any event, I setup a new office display with some of my better true first editions and so on......



So Sammy Hagar fits into all of this because I love his biography, "Red". It's a truly amazing read - dare I say it's a much better, uplifting and informative book than Weiland's memoir was. I'm a big Hagar fan and I'd love to add a signed copy not only for my collection, but to create better balance on the Weiland shelf (eventually Altered Carbon will be down with more Blade Runner stuff).

The likelihood that I'll ever meet Sammy Hagar is next to zero, soooooo I started looking at Sammy autos on eBay just as a starting point. And, came across this listing, which had this pictorial evidence that Sammy signed the book.....

LMAO! Vince Hagar?

That is so funny! I wish I was into grabbing autographs would definitely have a great collection. I do have Scott's, Eric's & Robert's just missing Dean's.


I thought it was easy to meet Sammy Hagar?

I mean... it might be. If you live in Cabo! LOL! I wouldn't know how to go about it.... I live in Chicago. I get the impression that he's the kind of guy that you could probably just email and ask him, but I don't have any contact or connection with his camp at all.
As a side note, if anyone here even has a remote interest in Sammy I would highly recommend his biography. It is truly a great read - it's not rock star ego stroking. It's a great story and the amount of stuff that guy has done is incredible. The entrepreneurship skills are amazing. He truly built his life.

Lol you are right! I know someone who met him a long time ago and he said he was really cool like he just had the aura of a regular joe kinda guy. Hope you meet him.
