Steve Martin, Stand Up Comedy 1984 (HD)

Select 1080 HD. This has been so popular I've now put it up in HD, 12528kbps. (My earlier upload was less than 4,000kbps). Steve's full performance at the Universal Ampitheatre from September 28 1979 from the Steve Martin 3-dvd box set "The Television Stuff." Although the DVD source is clearly videotape, it's not too bad and anyway it's the best quality available. Because this live performance was preceded by a studio based sketch it starts abruptly, but it's complete.
As the DVD's source is clearly videotape, the last thing anyone needs is a weak upload of vintage material, so I took a 1080 HD rip of the standard definition DVD and the best thing about that is KZbin allocates better sound to HD uploads. I hope you enjoy this innovative and inspiring comedy stand up.

[@ghanasoul]

This concert was filmed in ‘79 at the Amptitheater. It was never shown in it’s entirety til ‘84. Classic Steve Martin. This is the Steve i like. The Wild and Crazy guy persona is iconic. The suit, the arrow through the head, happy feet etc. great stuff. Steve turned stand-up comedy inside out. He mocked it, played with it. He taught audiences and younger comics: it’s ok if u don’t fit Pryor, Carlin, Brenner, or Klein’s style. U can still be funny doing YOUR thing.

[@ProvocateurdLiberals]

A shrewd summary. I have pinned your comment at the top.

[@ghanasoul]

Provocateur d'Liberals Thanks. :) I’m a BIG Steve Martin fan. Especially from this period. I read his book too so i guess i got opinions of my own.

[@billygarcia9885]

@@ghanasoul Born Standing Up is my favorite celebrity memoir. He delivers a succinct but earnest summation of one of how long it took him to attune his entertaining abilities (i.e., magic, banjo playing, sketch comedy writing, acting); how long it took to be an unknown stand-up comic playing cafe open mics to nobody but the owner for him to figure out his on-stage persona; and how long it took for the bitter taste of success to settle in after a wild & crazy rise to the top.

It's worth pointing out that Steve decided very early in his career to stay away from all drugs, and he stuck to it. Sadly, Robin got sucked down that black hole, which did nothing to help the depression that most comics have. (Steve, too.) When I think of those two guys, who were so similar and had such a monster effect on my youth, I think that's what made the difference in their lives. Miss the hell out of Robin.

[@AlexDeLarge77]

Can we just put some respect on this man right here. We don’t produce artists of this calibre anymore. Comedian, musician, writer and actor. Martin along with John Candy and John Hughes made my favourite childhood movie. Plains Trains and Automobiles. I watched that film with my dad and we laughed until will cried. That film has so much heart it’s just beautiful. I watched it recently decades later and the ending made me cry. I suppose I’m getting sentimental with age. Steve Martin like Candy is a legend and should never be forgotten.

[@thedriszen8350]

The younger half of today's audience won't believe how really big Steve got with this act when he started out. He really struck gold with it, to sold out shows across the land. Then his movies hit big too. So much of it was new/unique then. No surprise it simply couldn't last forever... good because the novelty of a lot of it did wear off. Plus Steve moved on to fewer and more serious goals, and grew 'comfortable'. Martin stayed popular, but did fade... because he did less... then almost nothing (by choice)... the proverbial shooting star that we fondly recall. But his talents and humor were real.

Listening to him read his book "Born Standing Up" is a wonderful experience if you're a fan -- it sheds light on how he came to be who he was and do what he did.

[@sammencia7945]

Some context for the year 2021: In 1979, Los Angeles, at a Steve Martin show, nearly everyone would have smoked weed in the audience. It wasn't legal. So you waited until the lights went down and everyone lit up. That's why the lighter tributes, now smartphone flashlights, at rock shows in the 1970s. It was the "inside d/l" thing to do. You went to shows to rebel and get high in public. So everyone was high and wasted. This sort of concert culture would abruptly end the next year. By 81 ushers were forbidding weed (but not tobacco) at shows. nationwide.

Didn't think this comment section would turn into generational warfare

[@VideoMask93]

@Green Giant Boomers aren't happy unless they can blame everything on millennials. See, we can drag this both ways.

[@VideoMask93]

@Green Giant Don't really care, because I was making a point about playing the generational blame game.

I doubt that. I am a 2000 kid, and I can tell you any age finds this dude great. Modern movies are just full of trash I didnt watch one movie of the last 5 years not a single time again. While I watched classics again alot. Already this bra's shoe 3x this evening

[@axelavex9577]

Ps: im a 2000 kid and modern movies just shitting on nerds and what not is just trash, that no one likes. No clue with how much money and advertismenet it has to be supported. Why not forget about generation difference?, what is funny stays funny.

​@@axelavex9577 I take it you didn't see Fury Road, then?

[@brettmichaelwolfe]

No way Henry Winkler just in the back holding up that Egypt prop 💀

20:42 was not expecting that to make me laugh so much

[@axelavex9577]

Haha indeed! The camera supported this very well fair enough and mind you. Overall outstanding production, not only from him but the setup. Btw Im a 2000 kid; really great compared to almost any modern "trash" from flopoywood If I am allowed to express myself that "clearly". Thanks for pointing it out have a good day and sometimes some fuUn.
