Up In Smoke
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Now that their feud is up in smoke, Cheech and Chong are high on plans to reunite for their first comedy tour in more than 25 years
Cheech Marin told AP Radio that he and Tommy Chong "looked at each other going, `If we're ever going to do something it has to be now because you're not getting any younger and neither am I."' They tossed around some ideas and figured a comedy tour would be "the most fun" and "the least hassle," the 62-year-old Marin said. Marin and Chong, who broke up amid creative differences, have tried to reunite before, but have always fought too much. Marin laughed and said: "It takes about 3 minutes for that to happen. There's this veiled hatred." But he added: "We've kind of resolved that." "We've gotten to the age where we don't feel like fighting anymore because the end is a lot closer than the beginning," he said. Marin said he thinks dope humor can be as funny today as it was back in the '70s. "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, California, 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. iReport.com: Is it time to legalize pot? While Chong has continued to do standup, Marin has concentrated on films and TV appearances. "I guess Cheech forgot how tough standup is," Chong joked last month after Marin said they were considering reuniting. "But he's got the incentive and the enthusiasm and he's ready," he said of his former partner. "My boy is back."

"We've gotten to the age where we don't feel like fighting anymore because the end is a lot closer than the beginning," ( MAN!) he said.
Looks like the duo has mellowed out with age which I'm hoping won't affect their ability to give us that obsene, crude and contemptible humor they displayed so well together 30 years ago. Maybe the thought of all that extra $$$ pouring in will keep em in form. Rae Dawn Chong is a lot prettier though!

Someone told me Tommy Chong was dead a few years ago, I thought it seemed plausable, I haven't heard of him doing anything since, so I'm a bit suprised, he is still alive.
