[edit] Personnel

This tour, unlike any other Tenacious D tour, featured a full band, as well as Lee.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] The band played more shows in arenas and amphitheatres, moving away from the smaller venues that dominated earlier tours. Shows also featured more elaborate stage and lighting effects. Jack Black says of the expenses of the tour: "We’re actually losing money on this because we want to do something for The Fans. It’s going to be better than The Wall. It starts off in Kyle’s apartment and ends up in hell."[22][23]
