Sammy Hagar thinks he knows why Van Halen inexplicably postponed dozens of shows last week. “They’re hard people to get along with, those brothers,” Hagar said. The rock group he led for more than a decade after replacing David Lee Roth in 1986 launched a tour in February with Roth back at the helm. “I predicted [trouble] was going to happen a lot sooner,” Hagar said. “I lost money on that bet!”
