As much as I agree with Kyle's sentiment, I can 100% understand Jack's position here. In addition to wanting to remain eligible for movie and tv roles, he probably also doesn't want to get shot. Security for singers is probably more lax than security for ex-presidents, after all (at least most of the time). It's easy to imagine some troglodytic cultist piece of shit taking the band joking about killing their bloated lord and savior personally, and resolving to do something about it.
Rare based kyle
On the one hand, I can get where he's coming from on a humanitarian viewpoint, that praying for someone else's death is in the abstract a bad thing.
But to break up a band that's been going for like 25 years and that was the foundation of his entire success over something that could be equated to being a jovial quip either means that tenacious d has other issues as a band or that Jack Black has some political opinions that are more important to him than his friends.
I hope he gets a wake up call and attempts to repair the relationship with Kyle Gass as soon as possible.
Or…… Jack Black has a lucrative movie career that could get completely derailed if he doesn’t distance himself from this for a while.
He's way overreacting Nobody cares what Kyle Gass says.
oh nooooo if he doesn’t condemn fighting nazis, he will be less rich, obviously this can’t happen
I dunno. He's American. Killing insurrectionists and fascists is pretty popular. I heard they put something about it in the constitution.
Jack is a coward. It's the least metal thing he's ever done .. and he played a cartoon panda.
Did he confirm the band is breaking up, or could they just be canceling the tour until this blows over?
There's no news about the band breaking up. They just don't want Kyle shot live on stage.
I mean, wouldn't the safest place to continue doing concerts would be Australia, where they actually have pretty stringent gun laws?
Exceptionally un-rock-n-roll
The metal killed itself
Watching the reaction to this leads me to believe people treat life as they do a video game. Thousands of lives are expendable, but people suddenly clutch pearls when it's one of the people whose lives "matter."
Would Jack Black have canceled the tour if someone defended one of the people committing genocide in Palestine or putting immigrants in cages and deporting them back to potentially destructive situations?
I really can't muster the energy to care about someone like Trump or Biden when I'm seeing dead children in my feed every day.
"I don't support violence." Yes these people do, with their silence and complicity. It's hypocrisy and double standards of the most disgusting kind.
Tl;dr I've lost respect for Jack Black
What a coward.
He’s probably hoping he doesn’t have to testify at his former bandmate’s televised military trial
Last week, Jack quit the band ...
Never did like Jack Black.
I agree I find him to be annoying.
