Our good friend and guitar hero Denis D'Amour aka Piggy is very ill. We are
helping Denis in every way that we can to feel comfortable while he fights
to get healthy. Denis is a very private person and does not want to make a
big deal about his illness, so we will not be able to answer questions about
his condition or give any other details at this time. We appreciate your
understanding.

Please feel welcome to send any notes, good words and positive vibes to
Piggy at one or both of the following contacts and we will make sure he gets
to read them.

This is absolutely terrible.

Take care, Piggy.

"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."

Yes. Yes. I can't believe I'm gonna lost somebody I respect for 20 years... somebody like Piggy...

Away broke the news to me last night and I couldn't sleep that well.

We had a practice tonight with Aut'Chose and Away played very well despite of the news... but you could feel the pain inside...

I'm gonna need a little bit more time to complete my website. I really need it.

Here's a quick scan a picture I took while Piggy was watching live - FOR THE FIRST TIME, the first video made by the band, "Voivod".

This is not good news for sure, and will ruin my days until we get good news about the situation.

Piggy... GET WELL SOON, (WE NEED YOU BRO)

As others have said, you are THE MAN, and the man behind the music. There is no replacement.


Thoughts and prayers

This can't be true. I'm terribly sorry.

I think you/he went through a similar situation a long time ago...and got back healthy again.

All our best wishes, we love you man, you gave me/us a lot, tell ya.

You and your band made my all time favourite record called Dimension Hatröss.
This means you gave me energy, pleasure, excitement etc.etc.
Thanks for all this, by the way.

I read one some messageboard posted by someone who claims to know his practice space mate that it was a problem with his appendix. Anyone else hear this?

I don't know what to say...
This doesn't sound good.
I wish I had some Voivod here at work to listen to, but I don't.

Hope you get well soon, Denis.

I don't know what to think either. How bad is this? Either way it's Piggy and I love the guy. I wish Denis all the best in overcoming this.

I want more information regarding his health status, I can't be left hanging. I'm sure everyone here feels this way unanimously. But ultimately it's his and his family's/friends' business. I appreciate being told anything at all.

I am having a hard time expressing my thoughts on this.....It's just wrong, bad shit always happens to the better people.

Get well my friend.

Piggy...I wish you to feel better again really soon.
I really mean that.
You are one of the best Guitarists i have ever heard in my life.
I apologise for being such an asshole to the band and to you at times.
Please forgive me for all that nonsense.

My thoughts are with you.
