Ladies, keep your eyes peeled - peel only your eyes, please - for a bunch of barely dressed, budgie smuggling blokes breezing in from across the Tassie.
They call themselves the Sydney Hotshots, and they reckon they're Australia's hottest male revue show.
Jam-packed with sensational bodies, dancing, acrobatics, comedy and even a
little romance to heat things up, they promise something to tantalise every age group with their fantastic two-hour show for the local ladies.
The Hotshots' tour of New Zealand takes in small country towns and major cities.
"The girls from small areas are just as, if not more, vocal than the ladies from the big cities," says the troupe's new performer, Raymond.
Really, who knew!?

"Performing in front of sell-out crowds each night is a fulltime job, but it has its perks," says perky Kriss. "The best thing about being a Hotshot is performing all over the county, seeing sights I would never have gotten to see back home in Greece and bringing that exciting energy to the stage every night."
This year marks the Hotshots' 15-year anniversary, so the show has been redesigned to cater to the ladies of the millennium (any millennium, apparently). A few ladies will be invited on stage for the chance to win fantastic prizes and for some up-close and personal attention from the boys.
The Hotshots say they're a hot act for hens' nights, birthdays, work parties - or just a great excuse to have a fun night out with the girls. After all, the promo says, it's not every night a lady gets romanced by a secret agent, arrested by a police officer and carried away by a cowboy, all before midnight.
Well, maybe not in some places but this is Northland - there are spooks, cops and cowboys everywhere, mate.
- Wednesday August 17, La Padella, Wellsford, 8pm; Thursday August 18, Malbas Bar and Nightclub, Whangarei
