I'm sure that it's possible to play whole song, and even vocals can be done in the way that make possible keep the show from the movie. For example a small head keeping mic (dunno what is called)
Who cares, it sounds good! There's no way they could play that song and still keep up the antics. It's from their movie and it was impossible even then. Just rock out with the D man!
Im pretty sure this song is the only song they lip sync. You can tell "the greatest song in the world" isnt ever lip synced. I get why they do it in this song, Who the hell can hit those high notes like that and play that same lead over and over. And he doesnt need a mic lol. still funny as hell
I don't deny that JB and KG are awesome, I love their work. But lots of artists lip sync on stage, especially when they are touring since the strain on their voices is immense.
damn when did everybody finally get it that they lip sync for master exploder? it would total ruin the idea of the song when he sings "i do not need a mirkrphone cus my voice is fuckin powerful" it would be a bit weird if he sing that into the mic wouldn't it?
i love tenacious D

This is the only song in the show that was not live. But it doesn't really matter because its a song that must be done like that.

It's obvious they're miming it, and they made a joke out of it; at 2:00 they just drop the guitars all together. it's what makes them awesome hahah

NotNek20 5 years ago

casperwhitworth 5 years ago
they mime it because it is impossible to get the same sound tone and sound the got in the movie
akakiba1 5 years ago
@Anarcy2006 They have to lip sinc it for two reasons.
One, it would be incredibly hard to actually do it live,
and two, how stupid would JB look once he says
"I do not need a microphone", into the microphone. XD
