Getting To Know The Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt!

What comes to mind when you hear “The Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt!“? Perhaps a group of pigeons dressed up as terrorists who use dancing instead of violence?

As a preview to the band’s upcoming show in Montreal, next Saturday, April 24th at Friendship Cove we had a chance to catch up with Mr. Fridd, who let us into the world of the Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt!
