Tommy Chong Reunites with The Shades

Before Cheech and Chong and before Bobby Taylor and the Vancouvers, Tommy Chong played guitar in a counterculture band from Calgary called The Shades.  When they played back in the 1950s, hoodlums would come out to see their show. The police chief even wanted The Shades to leave town.

This Sunday, The Shades with MC Tommy Chong will be reuniting for a show at Ranchman's in Calgary, Canada.  It will be filmed for a documentary about The Shades and preparing for the reunion.

Tommy Chong talks about The Shades.

www.cheechandchong.com is DEAD. Welcome to Cheech and Chong Fans Dot Com!

The site I created....The site that got Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong back together is gone.  Ownership has been switched over from me to them (by bureaucratic force).

And they didn't even put something on the new site.  The domain is just parked.  I guess Live Nation and the lawyers couldn't get their shit together in time.

Cheech and Chong Dot Com is DEAD!  Welcome to the real deal, Welcome to Cheech and Chong Fans Dot Com!

Goodbye Everyone!

Today is my last day as owner of Cheech and Chong Dot Com.  It was a great ride and a lot of fun over the years. I enjoyed interacting with fans and keeping fans informed.

It's shame that certain people were blinded by fame and fortune and didn't do the right thing.  Cheech Marin spearheaded the effort to take the domain from me, but Tommy went along for the ride.  It's strange because both Cheech and Tommy didn't object to me promoting their gigs over the past 10 years.

Two years ago, Cheech didn't want to be associated with Cheech and Chong.  He wanted nothing to do with drugs.  He objected to my having banners pointing to sites with "marijuana alternatives."  Cheech had his soon-to-be wife tell me, "i think the content of that advertising is a bit problematic for cheech's team. personally when i first googled cheech your site came up, but when i saw the home page i turned it off. the content of your site is much higher level and quality then you can assume when you see that ad for the first time. may be chong doent's mind it since he maintains more or less his old image, and though cheech can still do stand up easily, he has become so much more diverse, think of it-he is a hollywood actor, major art collector, golfer and now has a doctorate degree."

Life's about Karma so who knows what fate has in store for them.

See you on my new site www.cheechandchongfans.com.
