Billboard checked in with Jack Black about the long wait between Tenacious D albums, how much he paid for his first guitar and why practice doesn't make perfect.
Good News! Adam Lambert is vying for his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart next week. Bad News: His "Trespassing" set may only sell around 70,000 to 80,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on Sunday, May 20, so say industry sources.
''Are we just going to watch rock'n'roll as it gurgles its last breath?" asks Jack Black, the raucous actor who also performs in the band Tenacious D with longtime friend and fellow actor Kyle Gass. "Or are we going to do something about it?" Black, who memorably starred in the hit movie "School of Rock," says it's been sad to see the music he loves dying a horrible death.
Theatrical rockers Tenacious D have resurrected with a video for "To Be The Best," the first single off their upcoming May 15 album "Rize of the Fenix."
