Please take note of the highlighted line in the start of this interview with David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. You can read the whole interview at http://www.knac.com/article.asp?ArticleID=715 if you so desire. I still can't believe they're going to tour together. They always said they hated each other. But anyway, the quote is funny.
David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar Officially Announce Co-Headlining Tour

Tuesday afternoon, at a press conference at the open-air Skybar in West Hollywood, California, it was confirmed that two legendary singers have two things in common: they both fronted Van Halen once upon a time, and they now will now both share the same stage this summer, in a major co-headlining tour.
The very charming ?Diamond? David Lee Roth (flanked by yellow, sparkly cat-women and a few midgets) and the subtler Sammy ?The Red Rocker? Hagar sat down at the press conference in front of a score of cameras and microphones, to officially seal the deal: they WILL co-headline a summer tour together, with their respective bands.
The two vocalists swapped trademark smiles and amiable banter, as they were both obviously excited about their big announcement. If their camaraderie on stage there was any indication of the tour forthcoming, then it will definitely be a summer event not to be missed!
KNAC.COM was on hand to witness this momentous occasion. Although there doesn't seem to be an official tour name just yet, it is mockingly being dubbed the "Sans Halen" tour. Here is a transcription of the conference, followed by the tour dates that have been confirmed so far:
DAVE: Sam, did you ever think you?d be here?
SAMMY: Yes.
DAVE: Actually, Bono called me and said we had to do this for world peace.
SAMMY: First of all, I think about? 5 years ago, when the Van Halen part with me ended, first thing I did was try to contact Dave,
and he shot me down, but when he came back, these last few months ago, I think it?s a great idea.
DAVE: Yes, Sam, you did have the idea first, but the timing was wrong, and now the timing is RIGHT! You know you all love a good scandal, and that?s why you?re here today, ladies and gentlemen! Actually, this is about the second time and such, Sam and I have met, and we?re looking forward to a spectacular tour, something that is a little, uh, a little bit bigger than even just music.

Your sun so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone on the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes
