Our favorite duo Tenacious D have given out hints that they might be organizing some sort of comedy-rock festival in the future. Read the direct statement from fearless leader Jack Black below.

If you have not had the opportunity to grab the D’s new album, Rize Of The Fenix, through Columbia Records please be sure to do so here.

“We actually have been talking about joining forces, because we’ve always wanted to do a double bill. We’re working on a festival, called Festival Supreme.”

“It’ll be a meeting of the minds. It’s gonna be like Mount Rockmore, where you’ve got your Flight Of The Conchords, your Lonely Island, your Tenacious D, your Zach Galifianakis, your Spinal Tap, your Eric Idle.”

Jack Black also stated that they are in talks to host the festival on Santa Monica Pier and mooted a speculative date: “October 19, circle that in your calendar”, he said. “Now there’s no guarantee who’s gonna be on the bill – it might just be Tenacious D and Weird Al (Yankovic). But that’s a long ways off.”
