I’m a sucker for unabashed sex, drugs, and rock and roll tell-alls, so I was pretty excited to hear about Sammy Hagar’s new book, “Red: My Uncensored Life in Rock.” This week the Red Rocker was on a media blitz promoting the book, which goes into all sorts of detail about his personal life, how he made serious bank by selling off Cabo Wabo tequila, why Van Halen broke up, and, of course, life on the road as a frontman in one of the biggest rock bands in the world. Among my favorite revelations: What went down in Van Halen’s legendary backstage changing tents, known in rock circles as “the sex tents.” Here’s what he told the “Karlson & McKenzie” show on Boston’s WZLX 100.7 this morning:

I’d walk down there when Eddie was doing his solo, but sometimes there’d be four or five girls down there — which was to my order. Sometimes it was and the roadies were just like, ‘Hey, these girls wanted to meet you.’ And I’m like, ‘Here I am!’ You start changing your clothes because they’re all sweaty. You have a 20 minute break, and it’s like… “NEXT!”

Yup. You read that correctly. While Van Halen was shredding axe during his extended 20-plus-minute guitar solo every night, Hagar was backstage laying pipe to multiple broads. Listen to the interview after the jump, along with audio from Hagar’s conversation with Howard Stern earlier this week.

The money shot starts at the 4:55 mark:http://www.roabr%20/drunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/reviewpics/audio/audio-player.js

Here are some excerpts from Hagar’s conversation with Howard Stern from earlier this week:
