Actor, comedian and singer Black said today: “I was blindsided by what was said at the show on Sunday. I would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence in any form. After much reflection, I no longer feel it is appropriate to continue the Tenacious D tour, and all future creative plans are on hold. I am grateful to the fans for their support and understanding.”

And he didn't double down. Which makes him leaps and bounds better than most with TDS these days.
I'm gonna be the bigger man here (fat chance) and say good on Jack Black.
I don't know about that - they were getting 9000 to each gig which is about right for the venues they booked. I saw them back in the day and the crowd was about 10,000 then. Pick of Destiny Tour I think.

My last name is not Black.
I wonder if the tour just wasn’t selling well and now it’s an excuse to bail out.
My dad loves Tenacious D and he didn’t know there was a tour
