Jack Black announced on Instagram that he's cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour and placed future projects on hiatus.

This happened after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked controversy by commenting on the recent Donald Trump assassination attempt.

At their recent Sydney show, Kyle Gass was given a birthday cake and asked to make a wish for his 64th birthday, to which he said "Don't miss Trump next time."

In his later statement, Black said he was "blindsided" by his bandmate's comment and condemned any calls for political violence.

Looks like Kyle doesn't give a fuck more.

Jack did a fundraiser for Biden. I suspect he's just toeing the Dem line on this one. Doesn't really want to see "Democrat fundraiser calls for death of Trump" splashed across the news.

I'm more going to chalk it up to not wanting to stand on a stage within rifle range when maga lunatics are on the prowl.
