Can Justin Pull this off?

The Rumour goes, Justin is trying to convince the rest of the band that covering Seven Wonders by Fleetwood Mac is a good idea, now Stevie Nicks in her day had a fantastic voice, is Justin up to it?

Kerrang! describes it as "an album that leaps about in spandex, gets more camp than the average scout leader, and spits out in rapidfire succession some shout-out-loud great anthems". Classic Rock says "Bugger the credit crunch. If this doesn't put a smile on your face, consult your GP immediately! Hot Leg are, as common parlance would have it, the absolute tits."

Hot off the Press.....

Hot off the Press report from the Leg at Myspace-

Monday 15th December 2008 is shaping up to be one of the most significant dates in the Man Rock calendar.

Aside from the release of I've Met Jesus, Hot Leg's first ever physical single (available here in the UK or here for everywhere else) the Leg are helping Gibson to launch the new 'Darkfire' guitar at Madame Tussauds with a very short music concert at 9am! Sadly this event is not open to the public.

However, you can catch the Leg at Sister Ray, 34-35 Berwick Street, London W1V 8RP at 1pm. The Leg will be playing 4-5 songs for your listening delight, plus they'll be available to sign your Hot Leg purchases.

The day reaches a climactic finale when they perform yet another music concert at the Gibson offices. There'll be mince pies and other seasonal treats from 6pm 'til 8pm. The performance will begin at 7.30pm but tickets are very limited, so
email martin@1917corp.com right now if you'd like to witness the Leg's Seasonal Spectacular!

Hotleg Warriors Wade around in a field for the Love of Rock!!

The Leg shot a video for their Debut Track Trojan Guitar over 1 weekend.

This involved swords, sorcery and sauciness in equal measure.

Fans were asked to charge around in a big field by a castle wielding swords and whatnot?

Justin was after medieval re-enactment types with their own costumes, weapons, vague sense of how to wield stabbing implements etc.

The shoot was in striking distance of London and Fans in the tradition of Medieval War, had to find Their own way there, but Man Rock, massacre and mayhem lay at the end of the journey.

Justin said "We need as big an army as possible for one day and a select few for the other, when we'll be shooting the big fight scene with the band.

Think Frank Miller's 300, with a little Hawk the Slayer and Krull thrown in for good measure."

Prospective combatants were asked to send an email to Justin Hawkins with the following details...

- Availability from Saturday 30th August to Tuesday 2nd September
- A photo of themselves
- A list of any weapons owned that they could bring along.

Can't wait to see the finished Video, See you there!

I got to the bottom of Barbeque Rock.

I found this on the Hotleg Blog, "UK Man Rockers Hot Leg were delighted to sign the biggest musical recording contract of all time yesterday night.

The band's lead singer Justin 'Dave' Hawkins said, 'I am delighted'. The sentiment was echoed in identical quotes from lead guitarist Pete Rinaldi, lead bassist Samuel SJ Stokes and lead drummer Darby Todd.

Today morning, Justin 'Dave' Hawkins, MD and head of A+R at Barbecue Rock Records said 'We are delighted. Hot Leg is this label's first major signing, and we reckon they're the tops. It's an enormous investment but at the end of the day, who doesn't love Man Rock?"

God Bless You Justin, Irreverent True British Rock Music is in Very Good (If slightly Camp) Hands!!
