Updated...Recap: Day One of Cheech and Chong: Get It Legal Tour
Last night was the first show of the Cheech and Chong: Get It Legal tour. It took place at the Macky Auditorium in Boulder, Colorado.
The tour is sponsored by MPP (Marijuana Policy Project). They paired up with MPP in part because Cheech and Tommy believe in the legalization of pot, but mostly because it allows for cross-marketing. In other words, the Cheech and Chong tour will get more press. More press equals more tickets sold.
As promised, Cheech and Tommy did bits they hadn't done on stage before such as Dave's Not Here (a bit that was written with Dave from their old comedy troop in Canada; that's why it's "dave's not here" and not "tommy's not here"), Santa Claus and His Old Lady and Basketball Jones (which was written by Cheech while he and Tommy were in the backseat of Jack Nicholson's Rolls Royce).
Update...
The Denver Post has a review with speaks of forgotten lyrics, lack of rehearsal, mic misplacement and "careless versions of the same material they’ve been listening to since the early ’70s." Cheech forgot the lyrics to Mexican Americans (a song which was performed at every show of the first leg of their tour).
The comments on the Celebstoner blog concur.

Valid medicinal value, it’s a victimless crime, the War on Drugs WAY too costly, too many arrests for simple possession, tax it and use the money to pay for health insurance and to reduce the deficit…Need I say more?
