Career
In November, Hot Leg toured the UK in support of Alter Bridge but pulled out of three dates giving Hawkins's throat infection as the reason. Hot Leg also toured in November with Extreme. Hawkins and Rinaldi guested with Extreme on the final date in London, singing a medley of Queen songs. Hot Leg made a guest appearance on the Sky One programme, Guinness World Records Smashed, which aired on 27 November 2008.In late 2010, it was announced that Hot Leg were on hiatus, along with Stone Gods, which led to rumours of a possible The Darkness reunion in 2011. This was confirmed on 15 March by an announcement on a new The Darkness website.
