CHEECH AND CHONG COMING TO CITY

Their movie was called Up in Smoke, but their careers are anything but.

Everyone's favourite stoners Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong recently
announced a new comedy tour, with a stop in Saskatoon on Jan. 30 at
TCU Place.

The tour, called Cheech & Chong: Get It Legal, isn't just about comedy. According to a
news release, the performers decided to partner with the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP)
to bring attention to "the harm caused by marijuana prohibition and the urgent need for
different, more sensible marijuana laws."

The new shows are a follow-up to last year's Light Up American reunion
tour, the comedians' first time together in 25 years. Opening acts
include DJ Joey Mojo and comedian Shelby Chong. Tickets go on sale on
Nov. 27 at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.
