Sammy Hagar To Kick Off “The Best Of All Worlds” Tour In July 2024

Sammy Hagar is heading out on the long-awaited “The Best Of All Worlds” 2024 tour. Joining Hagar will be longtime bandmates Michael Anthony (bass, backing vocals), Jason Bonham (drums) and – as revealed on “The Howard Stern Show” – Joe Satriani, one of the best guitar players in the world, will complete the band.

Produced by Live Nation and featuring special guests Loverboy, the 28-date tour will commence on July 13 in West Palm Beach, Florida and will conclude on August 31 in St. Louis, Missouri. Pre-sales begin on Wednesday, November 15 at 10AM General on-sale begins Friday, November 17 at 10AM local. For tickets and more details, go to RedRocker.com.

“We’re gonna go deep into the Van Halen catalog,” Hagar told “The Howard Stern Show.” “If you’re gonna go deep into the Van Halen catalog, you need Joe Satriani.”

Although Hagar and Anthony normally play five or six Van Halen songs” on the road with The Circle, Sammy told Stern they are planning to only play “five or six of my songs” alongside Van Halen classics and deep cuts.

“When we go out next year in July, it will be almost exactly 20 years since Mike and I did a reunion with Ed and Al in ’04,” Hagar said. “Mike and I just said, ‘We can’t wait another 20 years. How long can I even sing these songs? How long can I do this stuff? I just thought it’s time to serve the fans.”

“There’s stuff we’re going to do on this next tour that we haven’t played since that tour in 2004,” Anthony added.

Regarding the challenge of learning legendary Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen’s parts, Satriani said: “There are things that are so iconic, you have to nail it. But if you go deep with what he did live, he never played the same thing twice. He kept evolving; he kept pushing. He’d do the recorded version a little bit, but then he moved on.

“It’s a daunting task when you do the deep dive into what he did,” he continued. “But it’s good to start at the beginning, and then you just learn all his little improvs and you get the idea of what he was trying to do. It’s thrilling; it’s fun.”
