Tenacious D's Kyle Gass says that his ill-timed joke about the attempted assassination of US President Donald Trump in July 2024 brought a "tsunami of shit" upon the band, but vows that he and Jack Black will be back.
In an exclusive interview with Rolling Stone, Gass admits that cracking the joke was a "terrible judgment" on his part, and reveals that he felt "panic" as the backlash against the band spiralled wildly, and his musical partner publicly distanced himself from the scandal.
