I was rather hoping for a thread about the many Daves not on the SDMB.

Scary.

Some of them are Davids,  
Most of them are Daves.  
They all have the same first name, but they all have different mums.

I’m right here…

I can remember when that album came out. I was getting “Dave’s not here” jokes from everyone.

I had no idea that they were touring.

[http://cheechandchong.com/tour](http://cheechandchong.com/tour)

It doesn’t mention anything near Philly, but it does say “More dates coming soon”.

I have to look around that site and see if there’s a mailing list or something.

But do they have their own hands[?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF1chLj1fro)  
Plus War seems like an odd choice but then it seems like it fits very well.

The War song “Low Rider” was featured in Cheech & Chong’s first movie “Up in Smoke.” Seems like a good fit to me as the two are closely associated in pop culture. 🆒

Yeah. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry is named “Dave”.
