Steve Martin’s Monologue

…..Steve Martin

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen — Steve Martin!

[ audience cheers and applauds ]

Steve Martin: Thank you. Thank you very much. We have a very funny show tonight – Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are here. And it’s great to be back here tonight.

You know, I’ve been coming here to do “Saturday Night Live” since 1976, and the thing that keeps bringing you back is the people you get to work with.. and I would like to show you something we recorded on this stage in 1978.

[ “Dancing In The Dark” sketch plays ] [ audience applauds wildly ]

Steve Martin: You know, when I look at that tape, I can’t help but think how great she was, and how young I looked. Gilda, we miss you.
