Original Toronto Star caption: Happy birthday boy. The star doesn't make a habit of passing around birthday cakes to friends; but when it's someone with character who has provided a lot of stories in a 30 year career; it seemed the right thing to do last night when Ronnie Hawkins (right) celebrated his 45th birthday working with his band at El Mocambo. So rock music critic Peter Goddard (left) presented him with the cake while musician Scoot Erwinn brought out the bubbly. Even Premier Brain Peckford of New foundland was on hand along with Kelly Jay and Scott Cushnie.
