On September 29, 2017, I finally met Amy Rivard at the Astor Room in New York and saw her perform live!
I showed up before her show to meet her and to give her some gifts. She really liked them, especially the card. I got Candy Canadiana her own gifts too. :D I didn't get to meet Candy, but she was apparently very appreciative. I also got Amy to sign some pics for me and she even gave me some swag!
Amy took me on a tour of the Astor Room. I didn't get to see the basement, but I had to save something for the next time, right?
I also got to meet someone else from my home town (I'll give you a hint, it's the same as Amy's) that happened to be in New York to see Amy on the same night. It's a small world.
I stayed for Amy's whole show and I really enjoyed it. Performing with Amy were Georgia Weber on double-bass and a new piano player she was performing with for the first time that night. I thought the set was great and of course, Amy sounded fantastic. She was very funny as well.
I got to meet Georgia after the show on the subway too!
Here's a video clip I took of her performing at The Astor Room:

I have quite a few more video clips, but apparently never got around to editing and uploading them. ::)
Here's a few of my pics:

I definitely want to go back and see Amy again!
I got to meet Amy once more since then, last Christmas, just outside our hometown. It's absolutely crazy it took so long for me to meet her but I'm really glad I finally did!
