The booking of Tenacious D at Les Schwab Amphitheater really rounds out the Memorial day weekend. Now we’ve got The Shins on Friday, May 25; Tenacious D on Saturday, May 26 and Beck on Sunday, May 27.

Tenacious D is back on the road in support of Rize of the Fenix, their first studio album in over six years.

If you’re unfamiliar with the theatrics of Jack Black and Kyle Gass, the men who make up the mock-rock band, see below (and the picture at right—they ain’t getting any younger, eh?).

Watch out, ’cause they’ll “BLOW YOUR MIND!”
