Montrose

Sammy Hagar has been one of rock music’s most visible personalities for over half a century — from his days fronting Montrose in the early 1970s through his stint as Van Halen’s singer in the mid-1980s and early ’90s to his perch in recent decades atop the Cabo Wabo booze-and-bars empire.

“Rock Candy” is a very slow song by Montrose’s standards.

After leaving Montrose in 1975, Hagar launched a solo career that eventually yielded this staple of MTV’s early years, in which the longtime car enthusiast rails against a nationally mandated speed limit.

Bugarini said he likely will temporarily relocate his restaurant elsewhere, possibly Eagle Rock or Montrose.

Down the hill in Montrose, Honolulu Boulevard is such a lively and classic small-town main street that it shows up in countless TV series and films.
