Band Chris Eller Drums Fun Greenville Hot As A Pepper John M. Hoyt Music Musicians Spartanburg

Hot As A Pepper was once again on the Wild Wing Spartanburg stage

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since we posted anything here, and I apologize because I know you have been hanging around, hitting REFRESH over and over wondering why there was nothing new!

Last night HAAP played again on the Wild Wing Cafe Spartanburg stage. What a blast that was!  We were pleasantly surprised to see a couple dozen of our friends make it in from Greenville, Easley, Powdersville, Piedmont, Simpsonville and other parts unknown.

What can I say? We’re honored that someone would go out on a cold and rainy night just to see us!

We made some new friends last night too, got a few new “likes” on our facebook page, and even a gig inquiry.  And very important to us, the management and staff seemed to like us and not only paid us, but I think we will be playing there again in 2013!

We’ve brought on board a new drummer, Chris Eller, who made his debut at last night’s gig. Chris is a pretty alright guy who knows his chops and seems to play well with others.

You can read more about him on our member profile page!

Next up – New Year’s Eve at The Lighthouse on Keowee in Seneca.  We will be helping to ring in the new year there!  Come on out!

Band Bar Charity Club Event Hot As A Pepper John M. Hoyt Live Entertainment Music Upstate Venue Video

Our band rocked Spartanburg last night at Wild Wing Cafe! It was HOT & WILD!

Our friends with “No Sweat” band played an Alzheimer charity event hosted at the Wild Wing Cafe in Spartanburg SC last night and Hot As A Pepper invaded the place to enjoy their performance and the cold drinks and eats.

After No Sweat tore it up with their first set, they were generous enough to let HAAP take the stage and perform a few tunes.

Check out the video below of us covering Sublime’s “Santeria”.  We put up some pics on our facebook page too.

Thanks to No Sweat and Wild Wing’s Spartanburg for the opportunity to play on a nice stage, with a crazy happy crowd and for allowing us to help out in a small way with a worthy cause!

Kudos to the their sound guy, who does a marvelous job, and to the wait staff – especially Kelly, who worked way too hard for us, and received far too small of a tip!

Now to get booked at the Wild Wing Cafe Spartanburg venue! It’s one of the hottest places in Spartanburg for live entertainment, and that makes us a perfect match!
