Jack Black is canceling the rest of his Tenacious D tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass made a controversial statement about the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

Gass, who comprises half of the satirical rock-comedy duo, sparked outrage when he was asked to make a wish for his 64th birthday during a Sunday show in Sydney. He apparently replied: "Don't miss Trump next time," referring to the Saturday shooting at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
