Tenacious D teased the tour with a short video featuring some hilariously low-grade animation. In the clip, Black and Gass sit on a couch fretting over how to pay the rent. When Gass suggests the group make a new album, Black cracks, “Ugh, dude that’s gonna take us like five more years — we are fucked.” The short ends with the pair hitting the road instead, even launching into an impromptu rendition of the Backstreet Boys’ “I Want It That Way.”
