DIZZY and JIZZY Are Ready To Jam

April 14, 2008

Timothy Flynn of The Flint Journal reports: Fronted by GUNS N' ROSES keyboardist Dizzy Reed and former LOVE/HATE vocalist Jizzy Pearl, HOOKERS 'N' BLOW also features backing from a well-traveled hard rock supergroup: QUIET RIOT guitarist Alex Grossi, HOUSE OF LORDS/QUIET RIOT bassist Chuck Wright, and PUDDLE OF MUDD drummer Dave Moreno.

But while the group is basically a side project, Grossi said the tour is a nice change of pace for all involved.

"It's a combination of goofiness and musicianship," Grossi said following a soundcheck in Richmond, Va. "It's not what people are expecting.

"It's not a sloppy cover band, although we can sometimes be that," the guitarist said with a laugh. "This is a jam band. When we go out with our other bands we call them our day jobs you have to do the same songs every night, for the lighting guy and the sound man. But with this band, we've never used a set list. Nothing is choreographed, so it's like a big frat party. You never know what's gonna happen."
