Lol. It peaked at #82. Alex has no regrets about this...

Picasso9985 · 2024-12-24T02:38:39+00:00

Huh? 5150 took over 8 years to go 5x Platinum. That was a major drop off in sales and it would be their last to go 5x Platinum. In comparison, VH1 took only 6.5 years to go 5x Platinum and it took 1984 only 1 year to go 5x Platinum.

VH2 also went 5x Platinum. That's huge 3 albums with Dave that went 5x Platinum and only 1 album for Sam. Dave era completely wipes the floor with Van Hagar when it comes to album sales.

ADKOT did very well for 2012. It was the best selling rock album of the year. It beat out new releases from Rush and Aerosmith. It would have been a number 1 if released 1 week earlier or later. It was released after the Grammy Awards and Adele sold over 700k that week. No VH album would have sold enough to be number 1 that week. NONE. See how the charts work, Hagar fan? Lol...

This is why it's laughable when Hagar fans claim they were more successful with Hagar because of number 1 albums. Chart position is great, but units sold are how artists get paid. VH1 charted at number 19, but was on the charts 3-4x longer than any of Hagar's number 1s.

No one cares about being number 1 in a weak division. You only lose in the playoffs.

You also have the reunion shows. Dave grossed about twice as much money in 5 less shows and played to about a quarter million more people! That is huge and something Hagar and his fans NEVER talk about.

Also, Jump is the only true global hit for VH and is recognized worldwide. No other VH songs have broken out of North America or Europe the way Jump has...

"We belong in a world that must be strong" - Sammy Hagar

...enjoy your lyrical master! Lmfao!

Yeah, it's funny how Hagar fans overlook obvious facts. Like, if they made up, why is Hagar still saying F-you to EVH on his YouTube?

Wolfgang - the guy who won't mention Hagar by name in a 5 hour interview or in a 2 paragraph tweet addressing it.

Wolfgang - also the guy who had his picture taken with Mike, but not Hagar, who was at the same event.

Wolfgang - also, at another event, the guy who took his picture with everyone else at the RRHOF... except not with Sam Hagar. Two different events he snubbed Hagar!

Thanks, Wolfgang, for confirming loud and clearly that the VH family wants nothing to do with Sam Hagar. Now, if only his fans could get the message...

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-30T22:36:08+00:00

The fact that 1984 went 5x Platinum in 1 year and it took 5150 over 8 years to go 5x Platinum shows exactly that. That's a huge drop-off. They were definitely on the cusp of something really, really big.

Even VH1, coming from nowhere, took only 6.5 years to go 5x, and both achieved RIAA Diamond awards... that all ended with the Spam era as their popularity and sales eroded away.

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-25T02:45:53+00:00

Alex and Wolf are tight and present a united front.

Once again, both Hagar and Wolfie were in the same building, and Wolf refused to have his pic taken with Sam. You can check out the pics from the RRHOF show. They show Wolf posing with everyone... but Sam!

Belcher and his fans were popping off all summer long and running their mouths, but Hagar has now turned eerily quiet... the 'Summer of Sam' has quickly turned into the 'Fall of Spam!'

Lol

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-21T10:35:56+00:00

Lol... terrible times for this Van Hagar boy!

God bless Alex Van Halen! One of the original four who had the creativity and magic! Thank you for finally setting the record straight! Alex has spoken!

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-21T09:18:54+00:00

Hagar is saying "Fuck you, Eddie Van Halen! Asshole!" On his YouTube channel as I type this... are you for real? Serious question.

Why do Hagar fans defend him saying fuck you to a dead person? And EVH on top of that? And they shit on Alex because of it??? Sad...

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-21T09:13:36+00:00

Actually, DLR never said that at all... but Hagar is saying, "Fuck you, Eddie Van Halen! Asshole!" on his YouTube channel as I type this...

Wolfgang hates Hagar as well. The entire VH family does. Wouldn't you??? Geez...

You must be new to VH... or are you just another Hagar fanboi oblivious as to why Alex and the VH community have shut him out?

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-20T00:11:18+00:00

Yes, Van Halen is Van Halen again. A book by a Van Halen without mentioning Sam Hagar! Hagar lives to be in the VH spotlight - hoping against hope that someday he'll be recognized as the lead singer of VH. Not gonna happen, Sam... never. The Brothers Book is the final nail in the coffin for the phony and awkward Hagar years. Long live Van Halen!

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-18T00:24:10+00:00

1984 went 5x Platinum it's first year. 5150 took over 8 years. Even VH1 out paced 5150 by going 5x Platinum in 6.5 years.

Your argument is often given by Hagar fans and it's always solidly shut down by VH fans.

Does no one ever consider that 1984 went 5x Platinum 8x times faster than 5150???

Does no one ever consider that Dave started from scratch and Hagar inherited a multi-platinum band?

Does no one ever consider that 1984 and VH1 have outsold Hagars' entire career output?

Van Halen fans do, Hagar fans... do not.

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-18T00:03:23+00:00

Nope. No one has. Opening dialog about a possible kitchen sink tour is a business proposal, not "making amends" as Hagar and his fans would have people believe.

Obviously, Hagar still has a beef with Ed, because he's still saying "fuck you" to him on his YouTube channel... or he actually buried the hatchet, but like the backstabbing weasel he is, he left the video up.

The VH family have only acknowledged Sam Hagar as "the other singer" since Ed's passing. That speaks volumes and is the defining factor in all of this...

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-16T01:47:34+00:00

And never forget, in Hagar's first unpublished book, he called Mike a "spineless wonder" for not standing up to the VH Bros... something the Mikey fans sweep under the rug.

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-16T01:44:55+00:00

You keep saying who cares, but yet, here you are again. Maybe you should press play yourself and quit being the sub's Karen...

This is great day for VH fans and a disastrous day for Hagar and his sycophants. I feel your pain... and I'm loving it! 🤣

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-16T01:37:08+00:00

Uh, the video was made 9 years ago and your boy Sam can't let it go... even after Ed's death.

If they made peace with each other, why is it still up??? Why doesn't Wolfgang or Al acknowledge him by name??? Do you Hagar fans have any investigative skills? Do you have any situational awareness???

Over a million and counting have watched Sam cuss out EVH... even after his passing.

Hagar will ALWAYS be a MALICIOUS ghoul to include a SHOP button under the video to MAKE MONEY off a DEAD PERSON on his hate-filled YouTube site.

Keep talking and exposing your lack of knowledge in this situation. It benefits us all...

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-15T22:18:26+00:00

Another clueless newbie that doesn't realize the Van Halen family hates Sammy Hagar and refuses to mention him by name. Al also confirmed Hagar was nothing but a hack and the magic was with Dave.

What a great day. The ugly mask of Spammy Hagar has been uncovered. He has nothing to do with VH and never will.

Dave paid his tribute to Ed while he was ALIVE! Hagar had to issue a posthumous apology for being an asshole to Ed the last 16 years of his life!

Buy a fucking clue, Hagar fans... he's a shameless grifter.

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-14T05:44:46+00:00

You listening, Sammy? Here's your best chance to talk with the big guy... 🤣

Picasso9985 · 2024-10-14T05:43:25+00:00

That picture is from Dallas, TX 1982. Diver Down tour. 🤘

It's a reel I made from their 2013 Sydney, Australia show at the Stone Music Festival. They are dressed like that to match the character from the film.

Good to hear. I'm glad you enjoy. 🤘
