A mom sat with her three oldest children and watched a TV
special showing the birth of a baby. The mom thought it would
be a good starting point for answering questions about the facts
of life.
As her five-year-old studied the baby coming out of the birth
canal, he asked, "Mom, does that hurt?"
"Oh, yes, it does," she said, remembering her difficult deliveries.
"Wow," he continued in awe, "does it hurt the mother too?"

On Saturday, February 2nd at 7:30pm The Bert Church Theatre is
proud to present one of the finest and most critically acclaimed
musicians ever to come out of Canada. He has entertained
millions of people both here and abroad.
Rik Emmett (formerly of Triumph) will be here along with
colleague Dave Dunlop to promote their most recently released
Strung-Out Troubadours CD. Rik has over 10 gold albums to his
credit (10 with Triumph, 1 Solo), 4 of which went Platinum in
Canada. He was recently awarded the 2005 Canadian Smooth
Jazz Award for Best Guitarist and also inducted into the
Canadian Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with his former Triumph
band mates. Multiple Juno Award nominee and winner of Best
Guitarist at the Junos in 1981, Rik Emmett is one of the
international music industry’s most accomplished guitar players.
Featuring remarkable proficiency in several genres of music
including rock, jazz, blues and even some flamenco, this is your
opportunity to experience a true legend-in-the-making.
In 1990, Dave Dunlop became a faculty member at the National
Summer Guitar Workshop, a U.S.-based school starting up a
satellite program in Toronto. While teaching at the Workshop,
Dave met and jammed with Canadian Hall of Fame legend Rik
Emmett, and became a regular member of his touring band.
Dave Dunlop’s working relationship with Rik Emmett grew to

the point that they released a duo project together,
called “Strung-Out Troubadours”. The strength of
the duo’s chemistry led to their winning 'Album of the
Year' and 'Best Group/Duo' at the 2007 Canadian
Smooth Jazz Awards, where they were the most
heavily-nominated act. Each of the “Troubs” was also
up for "Best Guitarist". Dave and Rik continue to tour
on the strength of that CD, but far from resting on their
laurels, their follow-up release has just hit the market,
entitled “Live at Hugh’s Room” showcasing the
acoustic duo in a magical evening captured just before
Christmas 2006 at the fabled “Hugh’s Room” in
Toronto.
On the live front, Rik and Dave are veterans of the
stage. Their charm and down to earth friendliness help
to make this a truely entertaining and memorable show.
