Business Time

Business Time....


So we took the second half of October off to give your brains time to recuperate. But November is knocking on the door, and it's time to get funky again....

November 16th brings us back to Burley Oak Brewery for a second time. Some of the finest beer you'll have (they just won a major award up in B-more) will be paired with some of our greasiest jams. 

For you folks making it back to the Bury for Thanksgiving time, we will be at Break Time for a pre-holiday show on the 21st, the day before turkey day. Come out and John will demonstrate how to make homemade cranberry sauce...

Looking ahead, we are also in talks to play a venue we've long admired and wanted to play. We won't spill the beans yet, but it's Dogfish Head. Keep your fingers crossed!

The Hot Meals love their Beer!


      This weekend is a busy one for The Hot Meals. This Friday from 9 pm - 12pm we will be playing Burley Oak Brewery, a new venue for us. We've been hearing great things about this place and even better things about their beer. As noted in out Facebook Event , They don't serve food, but you're allowed to order in, or bring food in with you. 

     Then to round things out and make this a total Hot Beer weekend, we are playing at The Good Beer Festival in Salisbury at Pemberton Park on Sunday 10/14. We play at 4:30. We would love for everyone to assemble and hang out with us starting at 2:30 near The Bar Stage which is where we will be playing. That way we can have a chance to see everybody before we get started. We wanna show the folks at The Beer Fest how The Hot Meals Army does it. Check out our Facebook Event for that and more information.



      We can't wait to see everyone this weekend!
Here are some things that might come in handy to get you through this weekend!!

Upcoming Shows

Aloha Hot Meals Army,
     We just wanted to throw a couple of reminders out there for all of you regarding our upcoming dates.

  • Don't forget about our Cd Release Party at Break Time in Salisbury on Saturday August 18th! We will have our CD for sale with a minimum purchase price of $5. As many of you have already asked, it's perfectly o.k. to pay more! People are already raving about the few CD's that we let go in advance. Here's what they're saying: "Is it supposed to sound like that?" "Are all of the CD's the same" " Are you sure this song has a keyboard in it?" and other glowing reviews.
  • We will be back again for the first time at MoJo's in Salisbury on Friday September 1st. This will be our first time in Mojo's but as some of you know, those walls hold some serious MOJO in them from our beginnings in the old Flavor's. This will be a night to remember. NO COVER.
  • Oct. 5th we are back at Break Time.
  • Lastly, we will be playing Burley Oak Brewery for the first time on Friday October 12th. If you haven't been yet, this place has a seriously chill vibe and excellent beer. Bring your dancing shoes, we play 9-midnight, and knowing us that will be straight through. NO COVER.
See you at the show!

Thank you!

A big thanks goes out to everyone that came out to The Lagoon Show! It was a huge success as we raised a good amount of money for the cause. It was the longest show we've played to date and definitely one of the most fun. Photos from this show will be up soon. This weekend we head back to Bassmental Studios to finish up our album. We can't wait for you to hear it.

Breaktime Fest!

     In extremely rare fashion we will be playing Breaktime this Thursday 1/19 in order to help them celebrate their 12th anniversary week!. Even rarer than that is the fact that everything (food, Booze....everything) will be 50% off! Even though it's a week night this will be a night not to be missed! In addition we will be playing several new originals. More info. at our facebook event.

     In other news, we will be traveling to Annapolis this Saturday for our first ever studio session. We feel it's the right time to try and capture some of the things that have been happening at our live shows and can't wait to get the final product in your hands!
