Huey Lewis, Sammy Hagar close out Tulalip Summer Concert Series

TULALIP — By the time you read this, the shows featuring these old rockers likely will be sold out. Still, it’s worth a check in case someone has turned in tickets.

The Tulalip Amphitheatre presents Huey Lewis and The News on Aug. 28 and Sammy Hagar and The Circle on Sept. 3.

Huey Lewis and The News have been together 36 years, formed from two rival San Francisco Bay Area bands in 1979.

These Grammy award winners have written and performed such classic hits as “Heart of Rock &Roll,” “Stuck With You,” “I Want A New Drug,” “If This Is It,” “Hip To Be Square,” “Do You Believe In Love” and “Workin’ For A Livin’” as well as “The Power of Love” and “Back in Time” for the hit film “Back To The Future.”

The former front man of Van Halen and now Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, Hagar, 67, was a young man when he “burst on the scene from San Francisco as the lead vocalist of Montrose, whose song ‘Rock Candy’ has gone on to become a certified rock class,” according to Hagar’s website.

After a bunch of solo albums and cross-country tours, Hagar, known as the Red Rocker, joined Van Halen in 1985.

Later he performed with his band the Wabos, enjoyed a 2004 reunion tour with Van Halen and now plays primarily with his current band Chickenfoot, which also includes guitarist Joe Satriani and drummer Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers fame.

Hagar’s fans, known as “Redheads,” can expect a variety of tunes from the rocker on Thursday.

A set from a stop on the current tour included the songs “There’s Only One Way to Rock,” “Rock Candy,” “Good Times Bad Times,” “I Can’t Drive 55,” “Whole Lotta Love,” “Moby Dick,” “Best of Both Worlds,” “Right Now” and “Rock and Roll.”
