He did his first "Tonight" show in December, 1971. A blur of plays come to his mind when he thinks of his post-"Miller" career stops in Michigan. "I did 'God's Favorite' with Pat Paulsen in Muskegon. In Traverse City I did 'Same Time Next Year.' In Birmingham I did 'Hold Me,' a Jules Feiffer play. I did "The Great American Talk Festival," -- not a play but just people talking -- at the Jerry Ford Field House in Grand Rapids. I did that with Letterman, David Brenner, Pearl Bailey, Vincent Price, William F. Buckley -- Gerald Ford, too. Lots of people. I remember their names because I had a T-shirt from it, with all the names on it."
