7-3-2008 Cheech and Chong reunite as feud goes up in smoke
Cheech and Chong are high on plans to reunite for their first comedy tour in more than 25 years.
"I think it's time for a revival of dope jokes. It's a much bigger audience now, it's much more widespread and institutionalized," he said in an interview earlier this month.
Details of the "Hey, What's That Smell?" tour were to be announced Wednesday at a news conference in West Hollywood, Calif., according to concert promoter Live Nation.
During their original run, Marin and Chong released nine comedy albums between 1972 and 1985, were nominated for four Grammy Awards and won one. They also starred in eight feature films, almost always portraying a pair of comical stoners stumbling through life.
While Chong has continued to do standup, Marin has concentrated on films and TV appearances.
