Cheech & Chong Plan Reunion Run

Cheech & Chong have decided to reunite after more than 20 years apart because neither of the comedians is "getting any younger." Cheech, 62, and Chong, 60, will launch the Light Up America tour in September.

"I think it's time for a revival of dope jokes," Marin said in an interview earlier this month. "It's a much bigger audience now; it's much more widespread and institutionalized."

No kidding. Everyone from 2 Live Crew to Rush to Korn has covered the C&C track "Earache My Eye."
