Jack Black has announced the cancellation of Tenacious D's tour and put all future creative plans on hold following a controversial comment made by his bandmate Kyle Gass. During a recent concert on Sunday, Gass made a remark about the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, stating, 'Don’t miss Trump next time,' as a birthday wish. Black expressed that he was 'blindsided' by the comment and emphasized that he would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence. The decision to halt the tour and future plans comes amid significant backlash and public outcry over Gass's statement.
