Know what would spice up this election season? A good fight over drug policy. The issue seems to have been on the back burner lately, but luckily our favorite marijuana spokesmen are back in town to light up the debate, among other things.
Before "Pineapple Express," before "Half Baked," there was the red-eyed comedy of Cheech and Chong, and we can't think of anyone more suited to champion marijuana legalization.

Cheech and Chong's tour comes to the Peabody Auditorium in Daytona Beach on Nov. 9 and the King Center for the Performing Arts in Melbourne on Nov. 11. Daytona Beach tickets are $42-$55, on sale Monday. Melbourne tickets are $33.50 and up, on sale today.
