Re: Was Steve Martin ever funny?
His book "Cruel Shoes" was also very funny. He's written some hysterical short pieces for The New Yorker, too.
I saw him in concert back in his King Tut days, and he was amazing. I had his first two albums, too, and my friends and I listened to it over and over again. It was amazing how he could actually nail people's asses to their seats at home, or somebody's home, at the height of a Saturday night, something nobody else and no other show could come close to doing. Steve Martin being on SNL was like a commandment to watch that nobody was too cool or too busy to heed.
