Steve Martin and Martin Short will play Red Rocks and Vail next summer
“Only Murders in the Building Stars” and comedy legends Steve Martin and Martin Short will play a pair of concerts in Colorado next June, promoter AEG Presents Rocky Mountains said Monday.
The pair, longtime friends and collaborators who both came up during the 1970s stand-up and sketch comedy boom, are touring their “The Dukes of Funnytown!” stage show along with a musical performance by Martin — a Grammy-winning banjo player — and his sometime-backing band the Steep Canyon Rangers, as well as keyboardist and “Jimmy Kimmel Live” band member Jeff Babko.
The pair are scheduled to headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Friday, June 14, 2024, and Vail’s Gerald R. Ford Amphitheatre on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
Presale tickets are available starting at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, October 18, while the public on-sale for both concerts are on sale starting at 10 a.m. Friday, Oct. 20, via axs.com. Prices were not immediately available.
Judging by their Emmy-winning comedy “Only Murders in the Building,” the pair are on a late-career high. Martin, 78, and Short, 73, first starred in a movie together in 1986’s “Three Amigos,” a so-so comedy outing that also included “Saturday Night Live” veteran Chevy Chase. Martin and Short have been touring together on and off since 2015, and their three-star “Murders” show (with Selena Gomez) has become Hulu’s most-watched show, according to press materials.
Promoters described the “Funnytown” show as having a “rapid-fire pace with little set-up and big punch lines as they mock Hollywood and the fickle nature of celebrity,” as well roasting each other.
