@fjtomm90 regardless of the D's mission to "rebel against the serious singer/songwriter mentality," you cannot deny that Jables has an incredible voice, and Kage is a totally kickass guitarist. Good music doesn't need to be serious, and the D proves that. The music to their songs is incredible and the lyrics happen to be funny. They have written a serious song or two in the past, but that's just not where they shine.
Great to hear The WHO honoured as the greatest rock band EVER! The Stones for instance wrote some great tunes but never could hold a candle to The Who live.
isn't it amazing how the audience love a song form a band they have probaly never heard of. everyone says the beatles are the greatest... but have they heard of The Who. Better still have they heard a Beatles track!!
@snolan80 Yea, I guess dispite the Whos intention the final verdict is up to the listener as far as how you want to percieve it... lots of people got dirty minds ya know.
Hory...have fun with it. They certainly did. So did the Who in many ways. If you want to talk about rock stars in love with themselves, look no further than the Who themselves. Pete is off the charts. So is Roger. Keith was the clown who needed constant attention. The Ox was the only one kept his mouth shut.

Total garbage. Jack Black is such a friggin blowhard. He actually thinks others think as highly of him as he does. What a joke. He tried to make a mockery of one of the three or four greatest bands in rock history.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sounds like you're the one who needs a sense of humor. All I said is that Jack Black sucks balls, that's my opinion. Either like it or fuck you. The truth is he sucks, he's in love with himself, and he sucks. Don't take it personally because I'm not stupid enough to call him funny or entertaining. He is a pretty good guitar player, though.

No, he didn't make a mockery of the other bands, that's not my point. If you're going to "honor" one of the greatest bands ever, then honor them. Don't do it for laughs, it's disrespectful in my opinion. I've read interviews and seen interviews with JB and I think he's completely in love with himself and for no reason, he's not funny. I'm all for comic relief but get someone who's funny to provide the relief, not someone you want relief from.
I can see where you're coming from, but I don't think he's trying to make fun of them...it's just how he gets into it. Whether he's into himself or not, he loves the music and, like he said, is honored to honor it. It's just his style. Myself, I think it goes well with a Who song...wouldn't mind hearing him do others. Cage is just f-ing amazing as well.
I don't know if you have checked out any of Jacks other covers, but i've got a video with some of them. Or just look up "Tenacious D Who medley" IT is amazing, has music from Tommy.
jack black could actually be a good singer and guitarist if he could be serious about it for 5 fucking seconds
