Before Chicago's show, Sheen tweeted, "hello windy city..!!! Thank you for the HERO's welcome!! I'll bring it...c." The former "Two and a Half Men" actor used a master of ceremonies who asked him questions on Sunday. Sheen got rid of the long monologue and the videos that were part of the Detroit show that had people shouting "refund!" and heading to the doors on Saturday night, according to the Associated Press.

The actor's one-man show kicked off in Detroit as part of a 20-stop tour across North America. Sheen's first tour dates in Chicago and Detroit sold out in just 18 minutes. The tour wraps up May 3 in Seattle. Meanwhile, the actor is still embroiled in a legal battle after production on the hit CBS comedy "Two and a Half Men" was halted in February soon after Sheen, 45, unleashed a slew of erratic on-air ramblings against its executives and weeks after he underwent treatment for alcohol and drug addiction. Sheen was axed from the series on March 7. He has since filed a lawsuit, demanding $100 million.
