Seems like the shine is off David Lee Roth (USA) and Sammy Hagar (UK).

Dave launched his 2026 tour last week, and already 2 out of the first 6 shows have been scrapped, and a third isn’t likely to happen. That would be 50% failure! I looked at several of these shows head of time and there weren’t many tickets sold. So either high ticket prices, or Dave’s live show reputation (or both) have taken a bite.

Sammy on the other hand hasn’t been to the UK in 30 years, and his lack to touring in Europe seems to have caught up with him. He was originally scheduled for four shows in July with Joan Jett supporting. This morning they announced Joan Jett will be on her own, and the Hagar shows have been down-sized.

OLD
21,000 – Manchester (AO Arena)
15,685 – Birmingham (BP Pulse Live)
13,500 – Leeds (First Direct Bank Arena)
20,000 – London (O2 Arena)

NEW
3,370 – Wolverhampton (University of Wolverhampton at The Halls)
3,500 – Manchester (O2 Apollo)
3,800 – London (British Airways ARC) [3 shows]

Must be quite the ego blow to both of them.
