How it feels

The comedy rock band Tenacious D goes on a quest to steal a magical guitar pick from Satan that makes anyone who plays it a rock legend. It is a made-up story about how the band formed and their journey through a fantasy version of the music world.

What happens

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny is a 2006 American musical fantasy comedy film about comedy rock duo Tenacious D. Written, produced by and starring Tenacious D members Jack Black and Kyle Gass, it is directed and co-written by musician and puppeteer Liam Lynch. Despite being about an actual band, the film is a fictitious story about the band's origins, and their journey to find a magical pick belonging to Satan that allows its users to become rock legends. The film was released on November 22, 2006, and was a box office bomb. The soundtrack, The Pick of Destiny, was also released in 2006 as the band's second studio album. Despite the mixed box office reception of the film at release, it has since been considered a cult classic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
