Good Morning, Dave: Tue, 9/30/80

One of the earliest clips on YouTube of the morning show still exists all these years later.  Steve Martin is the lead guest, there to promote the special "All Commercials" (which is on Steve's box set from Shout Factory).


Items of note: We've got people sitting in the aisles, now.  There's a groundswell of fandom, no doubt.  And yes, that's John Tesh in the audience.

Dave also calls Floyd Stiles for a reason: in his small town paper in Collins, MO, it was reported that Dave had invited Floyd and his wife Zola Mae to visit the show in New York all expenses paid.  This was not true, but what the hell, let's make it happen.  They set the date of Friday, October 10th.  Floyd admits that he hasn't been to New York, but he wants to "look it over."  


And now, for a very relaxed Steve...
