"It's hard to believe it's been 26 years! Some of the most fun I've had in my life has been since the opening of the Cabo Wabo. I just spent a week down there celebrating the anniversary because I couldn't be there today... played the Cantina three times! The most fun is when nobody knows, I just walk out there, always a great feeling makes everybody so high. You can do no wrong on stage after that ha ha.
The discovery of a place like Cabo and the creation of the Cantina has created a lifestyle for me and hundreds of thousands of fans. Its one of those dreams I never dreamt would come true. I don't know where I would be in my life or how I would even dress if it weren't for that lifestyle change.
I thank the fans and the staff at the Cantina from the bottom my heart, Michael Anthony, Eddie and Alex, and my partners Marco, Jorge, and all the staff (some that have been there 26 years) - it's awesome! thank you, thank you, thank you!" - Sammy
The Cabo Wabo Cantina opened its doors in April 1990 and Van Halen was there to throw a monster opening party. This is a clip of an acoustic Van Halen performance of the song "Cabo Wabo".
Check out this clip from MTV when the Cabo Wabo Cantina had just opened!
Many a day passed where I listened to my little brother talk about the Red Rocker concerts he attended.
On Tuesday, Joe had a major heart attack and is in a hospital bed in Omaha fighting to recover. I know he probably has an account here, but I don't know what it is.
I just wanted Sammy to know and keep Joe in his prayers.
Last night was the unofficial 26th anniversary of the Cabo Wabo Cantina. I played with Cabo Uno to a packed house. The Cantina filled up early like a birthday bash, we had to shut down the entrance at 8 PM.
Lots of redheads came down, it was as close to the birthday bash as it gets -- I loved it. The real anniversary is Sunday the 17th, but I will be doing the John Varvatos Stuart house event in Los Angeles with Mikey, Vic, and Chad, but I bet there's a hell of a party at the Cantina.

I did a surprise acoustic set with the band Sister Dass tonight at the Cabo Wabo Cantina. We played 45 minutes to 100 surprised guests. It was fantastic - I've never done that patio thing in 26 years. Wow, be doing some more of that! Ps. Blew the PA up on Red Voodoo oooops! Ha. 26th anniversary week starting off with a bang. See you all Wednesday with, Cabo Uno! - Sammy
Hi Sammy
My wife and recently went on a Def Leppard Cruise this past January and even though we experienced a few setbacks (death of Jimmy Bain, Joe Elliott having laringitis, and bad weather) we still had a good time. The meet and greets were cool. The food was good. The other bands on the ship did their best to keep us fans entertained. During an Q & A on the ship someone asked Eddie Trunck if Sammy would do a Rock Cruise.
Am so looking forward to seeing Sammy in Norfolk....Last time I saw Sammy was the I can't drive 55 days. But I've always been a fan. Knowing Sammy is a fight fan, (I used to fight when I was a kid like Sammy, although my father forced me into it for the wrong reasons, even though I'm glad I became a fighter) when he plays in Nebraska on September 4th that he gets ahold of Nebraska's own current Boxing Champion Terence Crawford from Omaha. I think they would both appreciate each other.
Excuse Me, had to Look "Blog" up ... Oh & By The Way was at The CKNFOOT 2009 Show in Berkley,Ca. CAL State Campus "The Greek Theater" & Could Not Believe How Good Those 2 Line Array's Actually Sounded... Joe's Guitar was Like I was Sitting Next to His Amp ... California CKNFOOT License Plate Up For Grabs Also As I was the Original Owner ... Google Say's~ "Blog" > "It is a place to express yourself to the world. A place to share your thoughts and your passions. Really, it’s anything you want it to be" > So, Hope Im Ok these thoughts~ ...
Would really like to redeem my two $150 gift cards from the Roseville show.
We bought them, had dinner there, went to the show, only to find out that our tickets/gift cards for future use were no longer valid 6 weeks later. feel burned. long time Sammy fan, have the Tat, seen him at least 30 times, but he burned me on this deal.
Can't drive 55 any more.
