* AGGRESSIVE AIR GUITAR SOLO *
It sounds as if Bill and Ted aren't the only rockers who have a much-anticipated sequel in the works, because according to Jack Black and Kyle Gass of the comedic metal band Tenacious D, they’re working on a sequel to their 2006 film TENACIOUS D: THE PICK OF DESTINY. Black announced the the film yesterday during their performance at the Shaky Knees Festival in Atlanta, Georgia, by saying “Part Two’s coming out in October,” Black shouted to the crowd. “I don’t know where you’ll be able to see it, but we have decided that it’s happening and it’s coming out.”
You can watch Black make the announcement in the video posted below:
