Chickenfoot, chickenfoot, chickenfoot, CHICKENFOOT!
My previous blog post on the new supergroup “Chickenfoot” featuring Sammy Hagar, is one of the more popular posts on this site. The working name for the project seems to now be the permanent name, and I can’t blame them for that, as much publicity as they’ve gotten out of it so far. Here are […]
