China Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 'Red' rocker Sammy Hagar says abducted by aliens LOS ANGELES, March 21 (Reuters) - No doubt Sammy Hagar, a former lead singer for Van Halen, has enjoyed a lot of far out experiences in life, but on Monday, the rocker told perhaps his farthest out tale to MTV. He was abducted by aliens. Or, at least, his brain was. In an interview for his new book, ``Red: My Uncensored Life in Rock'' at mtvhive.com, Hagar lets go of what even he admits might make him ``sound like a crazy person'' to some readers. He and the reporter are talking about dreams he claims to have had about UFOs, and when asked whether he believed he had been abducted, Hagar answers: ``I think I have.''

Commander PK Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 As a big Van Halen fan, I've been looking forward to picking up his book. Sammy has been generally talking about this for years in interviews. Van Halen's song "Love walks in" was about this experience he claims he had, he just didn't mention that it was himself he was talking about. If you watch "Live without a net" that is how he introduces the song. "This is a song about aliens" Listen to the lyrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
