This photo with Burton Cummings was taken backstage at the Red Robinson Show Theatre. The B.C. Lions sweater was a gift from the late Bobby Ackles on my 70th birthday.  It says “ROBINSON”  and the number 70 on the back and just the number on the front.  I wore it on stage in honour of the Lions’ first outdoor win since 1982 and the first in what is now known as Empire  Field.

I had been at the stadium earlier in the day at  half time to emcee Revolver, one of the best Beatles trivia groups anywhere. It was particularly sweet as we beat Toronto. I love it  when that happens! Burton thought it was a great idea. He told me that in he has just been honoured as a member of  the Order of Canada.  Congratulations Burton!
