Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.

He appeared to reply: “Don’t miss Trump next time.”

Gass also split with his agent following the incident.

    That always got under my skin a bit too. Like, I get it, due process and all, but if you catch a guy about to bomb the city with some poison gas or something just go ahead and take him out while we can still legally call it self defense.

    And on that note: no guns? Well excuse me Bruce but some of us don’t have infinite wealth from our dead parents to go gallivanting around the east training with this and that obscure ancient ninja order, some of us are too disabled even if we were financially capable. You telling me that I should just let some henchman dressed like a clown kill me because I’m not rich and able bodied?! I think he just wants job security tbh, the batty removed.

    That said? Favorite comics the big two release, loved TAS, loved Beyond, not big on superheroes but I like him because he’s ostensibly human, I like the detective nature to some of the stories, yadda yadda. Not my favorite super hero though, of course that would be The Flaming Carrot. Ut!
