On the hottest night of the year, Tenacious D opened up the second leg of their Spicy Meatball Tour at Charlotte's PNC Music Pavilion on August 6th. Talk about your spicy meatballs!

After a short but hilarious opening set by musician/comedian Dave Hill, The D took the stage at 9 PM. Dressed for comfort and maximum rockage, Jack Black and Kyle Gass sauntered out on stage to thunderous applause, picked up their acoustic guitars, and kicked into "Kickapoo," one of their epic tunes. They put the accelerator to the floor and never let up until 90 minutes later.

Along the way, the duo told jokes, bathed in applause, and kicked out the jams. They hit classics like "Wonderboy," "Tribute," and "Fuck Her Gently" (which they saved for last), as well as newer songs like "Video Games," "The Spicy Meatball Song," and their cover of Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game." It was a hot night, but it was a hell of a night.

Strange Carolinas started as a hobby for Chris Hocker who often dragged his family to offbeat detours on family vacations. Hocker decided to start photographing and writing about these roadside attractions and in June 2014, launched Strange Carolinas with a story on Myrtle Beach's KISS Coffeehouse. In addition to chronicling over 400 attractions across the Carolinas, Strange Carolinas has also become an impressive music blog.
