Tom played in "Hot Flash" band
Hi, I'm Kar.ma, and I'm copying out two statements originally written not by me but by 66.30.26.217 on Jan 2nd 2009:
- In the early 70's Tom was in a band called "Hot Flash". They were very popular in Clubs in Massachusets, RI, and Connecticut...Hot Flash was the last band before forming Aerosmith...
- Tom Hamilton along wiht Brad was in a band called "Hot Flash" in the early and mid 70's He was the one that handled getting paid at closing time. I know because Hot Flash was the most popular band in Connecticut and played at my club in Newington, Ct called Brandy's.
Hot Flash was managed by a local MA booking agent named Billy Masik..
If anyone can verify the reliability of these informations, we could add them. --Kar.ma 20:59, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

The photograph from 2010 shows Hamilton playing a German Duesenberg "Starplayer" shortscale bass. Was that just an episode, or a serious love affair? --Zerolevel (talk) 15:14, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
When did he learn guitar?
This text seems to be saying two different things. A single, factually correct sentence should replace this: "He first learned to play guitar from his brother, who received his first guitar when Tom was four years old. Hamilton first started playing guitar when his older brother Scott taught him his first chords at age 12. " 73.68.239.82 (talk) 16:19, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
