I SMOKED A FAT ASS doobie with some cool peoples, right there 10 rows back from the stage. PERFECT VIEW!!! And the show was GREAT! they haven't lost a beat, they are still just as good as 1975, with a little extra pazazz. LOTS of cops at the show hiding behind curtains and things, it was funny cause the whole place stinked! It was awesome. A total mix of people, like taking 1700 people (full plus 35+ staff) randomly off the street, but tickets were nearly sold out weeks in advance. Lots of older hippies, some bikers, some straight up old school stoners, but mostly groups of people in their late 40's early 50's chilling. But again, like I said a mix of all people. Maybe 1/6th 18-21yo, 1/3 older "Conservative looking" folks, and the rest was a mix of greeks, geeks, and freaks.
The aroma of pot filled the air the entire show, this plain clothes officer was running around like a madman, I'm glad to say no one seems to have been busted.
Tommy's Wife, Shelby Chong started the show, about a 1/2 hour of her sexy cougar ass walking the stage making jokes about all sorts of things, it was pretty funny. I gotta say Tommy Chong is a lucky dude. She did a lot of amping up for the crowd, getting boos for Tommy going to jail, and Yeys for his getting out. A good amount of Anti-Bush jokes, especially since he put her husband behind bars for 9 months. Chong of all the people. It just made the cause stronger for us!!! She also announced how well the tour was going and that they're working on a new movie!!! It's gunna be awesome! My hat off to her, and a decent stiffy in my pants for Shelby Chong, that sexy Canadian Cougar Chica. She even pumped up the crowd to yell out bitch towards PMSing women....
Then instantly, with no hesitation Cheech comes out in the Odelay outfit, yellow shirt red suspenders, and beanie. They did the bit from Up in Smoke, it was GREAT! Crowd went nuts most of the show, and for every line they had. No comedic duo can match what they did, and how they entertained and pushed a lot of people into a better world. They are AWESOME dudes, pointing out stuff in the audience, and it was really heart felt. They did Lets Make a Dope Deal, The Dogs, The Old Man and the Ese Mexicano bit, and every bit you can think of. I've been to concerts that were way less amped. Not to mention they played ALL their good songs, Earache My Eye, Up in Smoke, Mexican Americans/Beaners(revised) and a few more for good measure. A few songs here are there...
For any of you people here who think Cheech might be "off his game" or is a traitor, or something like that. WELL I have this to say for you, they were going to make the movie, CHEECH HAS PLENTY OF GOOD MONEY!!! And Chong ended up in jail for the bongs. (Their advice for Bong Makers, Don't put a picture of your face and name on the bong) It was then Cheech put everying aside, and went to the aide of his old buddy and he was high as shit, you can just tell. He probably figures fuck it, he accomplished movies, TV, and all that clean entertainment, and more regular shit, but I think he just wants to party and who better to chill with than one cool guy.
2 Hours of straight non-stop comedy, pumped up toking sessions, all at a place Designed by the Architects who did Grand Central Station. You can totally tell. GREAT Acoustics, even though Cheech's guitar was having connection issues at first you could still hear him strumming away.
I can't describe how great of a show it was, and how fucking awesome it feels to be that close and know they looked at me when I yelled something out in a short silence, and they pointed out to me a bit. It was awesome. I'm still at a lack of words.
