| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Nashville | | I bought it. I wanted to like it.
I didn't.
I guess for a couple reasons: one, I've determined that I'm just not that keen on Sammy Hagar. I quit buying Van Halen records right after 5150 as well.
Secondly, there's nothing on this Chickenfoot album that Giant didn't do better 15+ years ago. YouTube: Giant Live in the Studio
IMHO, YMMV

I can see were you are coming from...I am used to looking at each as an individual. |

I really want Chickenfoot to succeed if for no other reason than Chad Smith. He is one of my top 5 favorite drummers (that's not dead) and on top of that I cannot find a single bad word that has been said about him as a person. |

| | | Such a sad effort, so cliche sounding. I could not like one cut on it. I'm a fan of everyone in the band except Hagar.
Just so mediocre. I tried to like it, but can't.  |

I always thought he and Will Ferrell looked just alike. | I said the exact same thing to my friends "best part of the performance was Chad Smith's shirt." That's not high praise for the band. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
