Jack Black announced on Instagram that he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour and placed future projects on hiatus.
This happened after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked controversy by commenting on the recent Donald Trump assassination attempt.
At their recent Sydney show, Kyle Gass was given a birthday cake and asked to make a wish for his 64th birthday, to which he said “Don’t miss Trump next time.”
In his later statement, Black said he was “blindsided” by his bandmate’s comment and condemned any calls for political violence.
My guess is, that this will be the outcome of all of this. An apology along the lines of what you just mentioned, and a “back to reality call”. At least I hope so
He already apologized and said he was wrong to say it.
That sounds like the wisest approach to this.
KG should not have apologized.
Apologies are designed for human beings and entities capable of experiencing empathy. Conservatives are not able to process the concept of an apology. They are just as unable to recognize apologies as they are unable to issue them.
I don’t think he’s apologizing for the conservatives.
Wrong to say it publicly, but not wrong to think it.
