MTV: Have you ever been abducted by aliens?
Sammy Hagar: I think I have. ... Remember the story in the book, where I have a dream about being contacted by aliens in the foothills above Fontana?
Yeah, yeah, I've got the page right here. "I saw a ship and two creatures inside of this ship... And they were connected to me, tapped into my mind through some kind of mysterious wireless connection." You're telling me that wasn't a dream?
That's right. It was real. [Aliens] were plugged into me. It was a download situation. This was long before computers or any kind of wireless. There weren't even wireless telephones. Looking back now, it was like, "F---, they downloaded something into me!" Or they uploaded something from my brain, like an experiment. 'See what this guy knows.'
