[edit] Opening acts

Neil Hamburger opening

US shows opened up with comedian Neil Hamburger and were usually received by anger and vulgarity by the crowd.[citation needed]

In Australia, Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers opened, playing as T'n'T as well as Dave McCormack at other shows.[1]

Jack Black also gave two young boys the opportunity of letting them open Tenacious D's show in Christchurch, New Zealand after seeing them busking in Cathedral Square. Max Tetley, 11, and Alex Philpot, 10, performed "All Along the Watchtower", "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and "Mr. Tambourine Man" in front of the crowd.[2]

[edit] Internet Archive albums

Three albums were released with the explicit permission of Tenacious D.[3][4] These live shows have been recorded and released through Internet Archive and are available for free digital download.

[edit] Personnel

This tour, unlike any other Tenacious D tour, featured a full band, as well as Lee.[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] 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."[21][22]
