Jack Black and Kyle Gass will reunite as the Batman and Robin of rock when Tenacious D tour Australia in July.
It has been 10 years since Tenacious D last played in Australia.
Black and Gass met when they were both in experimental theatre group The Actors’ Gang in LA. They performed in coffee clubs in LA and gradually built up a fanbase. Pete Stahl of The Scream saw them and then took his drummer at the time, a guy called Dave Grohl along to see them. That’s where the Grohl connection started.
