Stiff Little Fingers hits the road for their final U.S. tour next month, and that run will find the band at Metro on Friday May 10.

The legendary Irish band was there at the beginning of punk rock, burning bright for six years before breaking up (eventually restarting in 1987).

Stiff Little Fingers frontman Jake Burns joined me virtually for this chat that covers everything from the beginnings of the band through today.
