_{This year marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the Love/Hate album “Wasted In America” and to commemorate that, front-man Jizzy Pearl is touring the UK to play some gigs. I arranged to speak to Jizzy on 10th January to talk about the tour, the album and future plans, including a new solo album. We actually did the interview twice due to issues with the more modern technology and ended up recording it over the phone, so many thanks to Jizzy for his patience! The interview was initially broadcast on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 13th January and this Show is now available on our MixCloud page – https://www.mixcloud.com/NIRocks/interview-with-jizzy-pearl-on-the-friday-ni-rocks-show-13th-jan-2017/}
