We are glad you're enjoying your Hotpot, we love them to bits and the public seems to as well.

There are no plans for a gig with a.P.A.t.T as far as I know, however a promoter did get in touch with us earlier this week as he might get the Hotpots on the same bill as The Houghton Weavers who the Hotpots are a direct pisstake of, so that gig may be interesting. :D

Oh dear.

Can't believe I'm about to admit this, but I think that any credibility I have on here might be only in my own imagination anyway, so here goes.

I used to be a huge Houghton Weavers fan.

Living in the North West they were pretty much everywhere throughout the late 70s and early 80s. I have pictures of myself with various band members and my mother still has 2 signed albums with 'To Richard....' on the inside.

Therefore I must investigate the Hotpots. I think a lot of it will make sense to me!

...

Bring it on then...

Rich

[Edit] I should mention that I was about 7 or 8 at the time...!

Sit Thi Deawn was a big occasion in our house. I remember sitting down and watching it with my parents...my mum used to be in the fan club!

The Hotpots have gone down great guns so we'll be recording some new stuff for them in the new year.

heaven help us, the Hotpots are taking over our lives. The public love 'em so we're halfway through doing an album. The first new track since christmas is now up there. If the words 'Chippy Tea' mean something to you then you'll probably enjoy the song :D
