Filmed at The Sound Academy in Toronto, Ontario on May 7, 2011.
This is one of the most magical moments of our lives.
My wife Rayna told me prior to the show that she had a dream that she would get up on stage and play "Duncan" with Paul. Naturally, we giggled about this prospect. Nonetheless, when we were in the second row, Rayna continued to request this song. He heard her in the audience and told her he would play it. She told him that "Duncan" was the first song she had learned on guitar. As a result, Mr. Simon asked her to join him on stage and play the song. It was truly a wonderful moment that we will never forget in our lives.
Mr. Simon and his band and staff were absolute sweethearts to us throughout the show and in meeting them backstage. Also, we would like to thank all of our friends and well wishers for their kind words and congratulations.
It has truly been a whirlwind as we have since had interviews with the CBC (Local and National) and NTV (Local Newfoundland News Station), various radio stations and websites.
When I first saw my video, I had wished that I hadn't coached her and I was concerned that I had ruined the video for her. But, at the time, I too was overly excited and extremely nervous for her. Fortunately, there are many great video versions of this moment so I can now look upon this video as a document of my own excitement and pride.
She is the love of my life and I could not be more proud of how she handled herself both onstage and in the media.
She is my hero!!!
Peace and Love,
Rod Ford
