Sammy Hagar was out promoting his new autobiography 'Red: My Uncensored Life in Rock' and during an interview on MTV Hive, he was asked about the alien abduction stories in the book, in which he describes aliens tapping into his mind.

The question was raised on whether Hagar believed that the experience was real and not just a dream.

Hagar is quoted saying, "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**k, they downloaded something into me!' Or they uploaded something from my brain, like an experiment. 'See what this guy knows.' "

Sammy goes on to tell that the abduction actually happened and he also says it was not his first abduction.
