Tenacious D concert chronology |
The 2006–2007 World Tour (better known as The Pick of Destiny Tour) was a worldwide concert tour by American rock band Tenacious D. The tour was in support of the band's 2006 comedy movie Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny and its soundtrack album The Pick of Destiny, and visited North America, the United Kingdom and Australasia. The tour began on November 11, 2006 and ended on February 21, 2007, featuring 32 shows in total. Footage from the shows at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle on February 16 and 17, 2007 were released in the form of The Complete Master Works 2 in November 2008.
In December 2015, JR Reed's "The Metal" stage costume and the car cutouts that were used for "Car Chase City" were placed on auction to raise funds for Josh Homme's Sweet Stuff Foundation to raise vital funds to help the victims of the November 2015 Paris attacks.
In the US and the UK shows opened up with comedian Neil Hamburger. The US shows at Madison Square Garden and Arlington Theaters saw Supafloss open in addition to Neil Hamburger.
In Australia, Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers opened, playing as T'n'T as well as Dave McCormack at other shows.
Jack Black also gave two young boys the opportunity of letting them open Tenacious D's show in Christchurch, New Zealand after seeing them busking in Cathedral Square. Max Tetley, 11, and Alex Philpot, 10, performed "All Along the Watchtower", "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and "Mr. Tambourine Man" in front of the crowd.
