If you’re looking to hear the greatest song in the world performed live, you won’t hear it at this concert.
However, there’s a very good chance you’ll hear a “Tribute” to it, when Tenacious D come to town this December.
Yes, the musical comedy duo of Jack Black and Kyle Gass will be taking over the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on December 13 at 7:30 pm. They will be performing along with guests, Wynchester.
The band had a variety series on HBO that aired in 1999. Their self-titled album was released in the fall of 2001 with Epic Records and was quickly certified at gold-selling status, and has since been certified platinum. The duo completed their first feature film together, Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny, for New Line Cinema, which was released in November 2006.
In 2014, Tenacious D won a Grammy in the category of Best Metal Performance for their cover of Ronnie James Dio’s “The Last In Line.”
Tickets to the all-ages show are $39.50, $59.50, and $79.50. They go on sale this Friday, June 8 at 10 am, through Live Nation.
