Today, we attended the Latinologues press conference at the Helen Hayes Theatre. The place was packed with reporters.
We were only able to speak Cheech Marin briefly because he was heading back to California this afternoon. We asked him about the reunion film and the script. Contrary to previous reports, Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong never finalized the movie script. They came up with the premise together, but that was it. He didn't seem comfortable discussing it. We will have a more in-depth interview with Cheech when he returns in October.
We brought Brett Alexander with us so he could show Cheech the Cheech Marin signature guitar, as well as give Cheech the bust he created. In the past, Brett has also created guitars for Tommy Chong and legendary blues musician, Buddy Miles.
In addition, we had the opportunity to speak some of the other cast members. Rick Najera said that he saw our review and was very appreciative. By the way, Shirley looked stunning.
