Sammy Hagar has once again clarified his recent comments about no longer wanting to spend any time on the road. Referencing his Las Vegas residency, “Best Of All Worlds Tour – The Residency”, which kicked off last week (Wednesday, April 30) at Dolby Live, the 77-year-old former VAN HALEN and MONTROSE frontman told KQRS host Steve Gorman (former THE BLACK CROWES drummer): “I used to [not] like [it] in VAN HALEN when we used to play four nights in New York, four nights in Detroit, four nights in Chicago, four nights in San Francisco, four nights in L.A. I used to think, ‘God, I hate that because I feel so, ‘Man, I did that last night.’ ‘Oh, I said that last night.” Even my clothes, ‘Oh, I wore that last night’ — even though it’s been dry cleaned. ‘I can’t wear it tonight.’ So that puts stress on me, ’cause I’m a spontaneous guy; I don’t like to do the same show every night. So that’s the only thing that worries me, is that element of it. But I guess Vegas turns over every weekend,. And the crazy fans, there’s always those fans, the hardcores, that are gonna see multiple nights. I guarantee you there’s a handful of guys that will see every single show — a handful of people that will see every single show — and I’m more worried about them than I am the people that are seeing it for the first time. I’m just goofy. I still care a lot, and I drive myself crazy. But I’m hoping that I’ll love this residency, so we don’t have to move every day and I’ll have time to work out a couple new songs in the show every night, like change a song here and a song there. ‘Cause you can’t do that on tour. You’re packing your bags, you’re getting on a plane, you’re getting in a car, you’re trying to get something to eat, you’re trying to get some sleep. Next thing you know, you’re on stage going, ‘Damn.’ And so the rest factor, that I don’t have to travel, is gonna be great for a guy my age. So I’m really looking forward to it being the secret to me being able to continue to do this.”

He continued: “I don’t think I can go on tour again. I don’t wanna say I’m retiring — I would never say that — but I just don’t know. My head, my mind, my heart and soul is not saying to me, ‘Oh, boy, let’s book another tour next year.’ And my manager’s talking about all these offers, ’cause this show has done so well that all the promoters, ‘Oh, we want it. We want it Europe.’ I’m going, ‘I can’t say yes to it.’ I wanna get through the residency and see if that satisfies me and I can pull it off on the level I want to pull it off. And if I can, I’ll probably do it again.”
