    5:18 When Marty sang to Steve "Made me laugh and seen me cry", all I could picture was Steve being there for Marty when his wife died in 2010

      I recently read Marty's book. The part where he talks about how Steve was on the verge of tears when Martin first told him how serious Nancy's condition was still stuns me.

    I can't believe I was driven to laugh and to cry in such a short time, by the same person. This is what I hope we all are able to appreciate in life - true friendships. I so wish these two would tour again, so I can experience the pleasure of their company.
