Sammy Hagar, with a little help from his friend Joe Satriani, has released what he says is a “long overdue thank you to Eddie Van Halen’.

Following the end of Sammy, Mike, Joe, Kenny & Rai’s set at Stagecoach, the brand new video for “Encore, Thank You, Goodnight.” (Directed by ZZ Satriani) premiered on the big screen to a packed house.

Hagar and Satriani wrote ‘Encore, Thank You, Goodnight’.

“I can’t wait for the world to hear this very special song Joe and I wrote as a long overdue thank you to Eddie Van Halen for the music, the good times, and the dream that inspired this track, ‘Encore, Thank You, Goodnight.'”, Sammy said earlier.

And here it is:
