Our esteemed & beloved bass player, had a heart attack on Monday 16th March (theres a bad 16th thing going on here...). He is now recovering well at home and wishes to thank everyone who has sent messages of support.
Unfortunately this will have to be put on hold, but lots of work has already gone into it so there WILL be a new Hogs album, but perhaps not just yet....
