  "We've written eight, nine songs...When people hear the music, it's Led Zeppelin. It's as good as that. I know that's a mighty bold statement...We could rival ZEP." —Sammy HagarBlabbermouth.net: Van Halen + Red Hot Chili Peppers = Chickenfoot (May 28, 2008)

  "We're having a very fun time. For years now I've wanted to do something with a real vocalist and a real band, and I came close a few times but nothing really panned out. This time is different. What I'm doing with Sammy and the rest of the guys feels right. We get together, we have a lot of laughs, and great things happen musically. I'm thrilled, and I can't wait to get our ideas recorded." —Joe SatrianiMusic Radar: Sammy Hagar says new supergroup could "rival Zep" (May 28, 2008)
