Former Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar, also known as the Red Rocker, is set to perform a special acoustic set with his longtime friend and guitarist Vic Johnson to mark the opening of the Stage RED Theater in his hometown of Fontana, California.
The event, titled “An Acoustic Evening With Sammy Hagar And Vic Johnson,” will take place on Saturday, June 15th, to officially inaugurate the new venue. The Stage RED Theater replaces the Center Stage Theater and has been named in honor of Hagar, a native of Fontana.
In a heartfelt message shared on social media, Hagar expressed his excitement: “I fell in love with music while growing up in Fontana, so being honored by my hometown with a venue named after me is one of the coolest and proudest moments of my life. It’s going to be a hell of a celebration!”
The developers of Stage RED Theater, Ideation Design Group, also shared their enthusiasm: “From concept to creation, our team has been hard at work crafting a space that embodies the spirit of Sammy Hagar and promises to deliver an unparalleled live music experience. As the countdown to the big day begins, we’re pouring our passion and expertise into every detail, ensuring that Stage RED will be nothing short of extraordinary. Come join us as we kick off this epic journey celebrating music, community, and the one and only Red Rocker himself!”
This opening concert promises to be a memorable event, celebrating the rich musical heritage of Fontana and honoring one of its most famous sons.
