You can imagine the sadness when I heard that Piggy from Voivod was dead. I was part of the band for almost 3 years, recorded The Outer limits and was on the road for 2 tours with them. Piggy taught me so many things, especially about what became my career as a musician. He was a friend and an artist that I had the most respect for. He dedicated his life for his music.
We will be paying a tribute to him on September 10th at The Medley in Montreal. BLACKY (Jean-Yves Thérriault), one of the founding members of Voivod and Dan Mongrain of MARTYR will be joining us for the event. One of Metal’s pioneer is dead, but Voivod is still alive…through his music. Our heritage.
Pierre St-Jean.
