The great thing about making a solid living in music and entertainment is the ability it gives you to live near people doing the same thing. Though their styles may be different, Grateful Dead‘s Bob Weir can look down the street and occasionally catch sight of the “Red Rocker†himself, Sammy Hagar.
Weir says he’s enjoyed getting to know Sammy over the years, and told Rolling Stone about one incident where the singer dropped by after arguing with his wife. Weir explained, “He’s more fun than a frog in a glass of milk, and he’s got his studio right around the corner here. He’s nuts. We hang together a bit. When he gets thrown out of the house, typically I’ll get a phone call — ‘Bob, I’m coming down there. I’ve got to show you my new car.’ He comes down there, he’s a little edgy, and he’s got a new car and he takes me out and scares the living crap out of me. And he gets it out of his system and everything’s fine.â€
That is fucking hilarious.
