This weekend, Tommy and Shelby are performing stand-up at The Improv in Akron, OH. Cleveland's The Plain Dealer had a chance to interview Chong about the Marijuana-Logues, the end of the reunion and his arrest.
Marijuana-Logues...Tommy briefly appeared in the off-broadway show, Marijuana-Logues, last year. The show was to then tour the country. However, due to problems with Tommy's probation, he was forced to cancel the tour (fans were throwing joints onto the stage).
The reunion with Cheech..."It got frostier and colder. The reunion did not go well for Cheech, but Cheech is no longer Cheech, he's Richard and a spokesman for the Latino community. He's far above the lowrider, pot-smoking guy he was," said Chong. "They expected us to do some live performing. I said we could do a million bits, and he was like, I don't want to do it. I haven't done that in so long.' And I said, Well, you don't even have a line in this one.' In the end, he wouldn't do it."
