StoneMtn Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Well ya! Obviously.PTing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyp Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hmmm I think y'all will have a lot of fun, but I get tired of the D after the first couple of songs. It's good sketch comedy, but the concerts have never worked for me personally...I think I'll spend my concert allowance on the Mule instead.

NewRider Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 I saw the Warehouse show a couple years ago as well. I enjoyed it for a while and then the gags got so old I just left. I think I remember it being a sausage factory too. I thought they were funny and they're a lot facking better then Jared Leto's band. I've never been to Ricoh, hope the sound is good.

Birdy Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 imho this guys is just not funny or talented as a musician I have to agree. I've tried to enjoy Jack Black but he just doesn't do it for me. Plus I have heard some rather unfavourable reviews of the new album from some fairly hardcore Tenacious D fans. me three.i kinda like him when he's a sidekick, but when the whole enchilada is jack black, i can't bring myself to do it.

fluffhead77 Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 new album is kinda weak, but it's more of a soundtrack I feel than a stand-alone album. that being said, I'm super AMPED for this show!!! Can't fucking wait!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Does anyone know if there's an opening act for this show? Alternatively, does anyone know if this show will really start at 7:30 (as I doubt it will). Lassie has to work until 7:00 that night, and before I convince her to duck out of work early, I want to see if she really has to.As well, for all of you who might misunderstand the above question (as I noticed happened when I asked if anyone else was going to the show) my question is about the start-time of the show, or an opening act. I am not asking for people's opinions on the musical talent of the band or their ability to be funny. I thought I should be clearer this time, as it seems I confused a couple of people last time, who thought I was soliciting opinions on the band. I am not. So, anyone know the actual start-time or if there's an opener? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Freak Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 If you don't think this is funny, well, I don't know...I'm down with the D, but I have to admit the few songs from the new movie, seem not as good as past tunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 hey StnMtn, I doubt it'll start on-time (I mean, how often do shows start on time)...and I also doubt there is an opener...man I am jealous. I just found out that I am gonna be in Toronto after all for a friends birthday, but my pleadings with them to change the party to the Kool Haus were futile...bahI wanted to hear FHG...

StoneMtn Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Actually, I've learned a little bit since posting. There is an opener, called "Neil Hamburger". I don't know if that is one guy or a band, and I don't plan to find out, because I don't want to end up enjoying the music by whoever that is, and stress about most-certainly missing their set. The doors are supposed to open at 6:30, with Neil Hamburger going on at 7:30, which is good news to me. I figure there's no way the "D" can hit the stage before 8:30, and more likely 9:00 to 9:30. If anyone knows when they are really scheduled to hit the stage, though, I'd still love to hear from you. [color:purple]It's good news that afro poppa won't be there, too. I live in fear of sitting behind a giant afro at some gig, jumping up-and down; left-and-right desperately trying to see over him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmyB Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 I would love to go to this gig, but alas I'll be at work on Monday night.I would skip work except for the fact that I saw the D back in 2002 at the Warehouse (now the Kool Haus). I thought they were hilarious and well worth the price of admission.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomFoolery Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Jack Black was perfect in High Fidelity. The role was "him".By that I mean he wasn't acting. Every role since that movie has been a grand disappointment. He's uni-dimensional and a bore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 For sure, Jack Black hit his peak with that movie.High Fidelity is one of my favourites ever; I mean what other flick features music by my favourite punk band, The Stiff Little Fingers?

Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Agreed - High Fidelity nails it. His bit in Bob Roberts was well done, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 That was fun as hell!Funny, multi-media performance, great tunes, most of the songs I wanted to hear, The Anti-Christ on guitar, Col. Sanders on drums, Charlie Chaplin on bass, I hung-out with Carstairs ... What more can you ask for?I'd see The "D" (The "Fellowship of the D"?) again in a heart-beat. Well worth the price; ever penny.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
