In case you were wondering
This last week we received through the mail (via our friend Cathy Jenson) personally autographed photos of…… Sammy Hagar! For those of you unfamiliar with Mr. Hagar and his work (are you living under a rock? or without rock), may we suggest one of his early albums: Standing Hampton! Yes, we like him, and yes, we borrowed his album title as our band name (which he borrowed from Cockney slang) and in the course of the band we’ve performed 4 of the songs on the album. Needless to say we were excited (Devon would say ludicrous -inside joke) and we’re still waiting for him to come sit in with us, but you never know… that day may come. So now you know half the story of where the term Standing Hampton originated. You’ll just have to google it to learn the rest of the story. We know of course most of you are in the know, but we have to initiate new fans as well. rock on!
