UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Tenacious D — self-styled as "the greatest band in the world" — comprised of Jack Black and Kyle Gass — will be playing five shows in the U.S. this year and donating all proceeds from said shows to "Rock The Vote," whose mission supports voter registration, education and rights. The tour will make a stop at Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center on Saturday, Oct. 26.
This is the second time The D have teamed up with "Rock The Vote." The first time was in 2020 with the release of their cover of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" classic “The Time Warp,” which also supported the organization.
