Earlier this month HT faves Tenacious D's Rize of the Fenix World Tour visited the Bank of America Pavilion in Boston, Mass. where Kyle, JB and their band provided a hearty mix of classic material, tunes from the recently released Rize of the Fenix and even a few choice covers. Videographer extraordinaire  MKDevo was on hand and captured The D in action. MKDevo's Tenacious D in Boston playlist contains nearly everything played that night with the video quality we've come to depend on from Mr. Pecoraro. Take [...]

Blurb: "Earlier this summer Jack Black and Kyle Gass, the duo known as Tenacious D, released their long awaited third album Rize of the Fenix.

The Front Bottoms have announced they will open for Tenacious D tonight (June 30th) at Festival Pier (at Penn's Landing) in Philadelphia, PA.

I never thought I'd be compelled to write something intelligent about a Tenacious D show. Then again, I never thought I'd see Tenacious D live. But, when their Hammerstein gig was announced, something inside me insisted I go. Perhaps I wanted to be in the same room as Jack Black. (There's nothing wrong with that, right? Musicians are technically celebrities, but he's a movie star , a different breed altogether.) Maybe I wanted to see how much I've grown up since the days of jamming to "Tribute" with my high school band. Or, fine, maybe I  liked   The [...]

Tenacious D released Rize of the Fenix last month and since then we've seen them perform their merry way through a few late night TV appearances. Last night they visited Jon Stewart at The Daily Show and performed the tracks "Deth Starr" and "Throw Down". Check out the two rocking hard up at the top and after the jump courtesy of The Audio Perv .

Last night, Tenacious D stopped by The Daily Show to perform two cuts off their latest LP, Rize of the Fenix .  "Deth Starr" and "Throw Down" aren't necessarily the strongest of the new batch, but Jack Black and Kyle Gass gave it their old college try and came out on top. Besides, what better band to bring down the house after today's Supreme Court ruling - even Jon Stewart approved. "Does it hurt to rock that hard," he asked the two. Black's answer was short yet fitting: "It can, but [...]
