Hot Leg released the song "Heroes" as a free download, but the track does not appear on their album, Red Light Fever. Appearing on their official MySpace profile was Hot Leg's debut single, titled "Trojan Guitar", which was released digitally as a free download on 20 October 2008. It is described as a 'medieval epic' which lasts more than 5 minutes. A medley of other songs due to appear on Red Light Fever was posted on the band's MySpace page, titled "Mega Mix 1". "Automatic" & "Cupboard Love" (additional tracks from the "I've Met Jesus" EP) had been posted too. After the release of Red Light Fever, tracks from the album were uploaded.

Hot Leg conducted their first full tour of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland and Wales) in October 2008. During this tour, notably the band's Edinburgh date, Hawkins mentioned the band had a Christmas single entitled "I've Met Jesus", an unlikely contender for the UK Christmas number-one. Via their myspace blog on 21 December 2008, the Leg announced that "I've Met Jesus" had hit the Christmas number one slot in the 'Man-Rock' Charts. [1]

In November Hot Leg toured the UK in support of Alter Bridge but pulled out of three dates giving Hawkin's throat infection as the reason. However, there was controversy at the Glasgow and London stages of the tour when Hot Leg were booed by Alter Bridge and Logan fans. 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.

Also in November Hot Leg made a guest appearance on a new show for Sky One called Guinness World Records Smashed, aired on 27 November 2008.[2] During the show they smashed the world record for the highest number of people playing air guitar all at the same time. Hot Leg's debut album Red Light Fever released 9 February 2009, does not include Cupboard Love. The songs that do feature on the album are the following:Chickens, You Can't Hurt Me Any More, Ashamed (Featuring Beverlei Brown), I've Met Jesus, Trojan Guitar, Cocktail, Gay in the 80's, Prima Donna, Which Ever Way You Want To Give it and Kissing In The Wind.
