just for the first two albums poncho. he never played live with them, and now they have a different drummer. at least that's what i heard in an interview with dave grohl and the d. but yeah, he had to play the devil in the movie, because he did the vocals for the devil on the cd. he was the perfect devil for the part. why would he be embarrassing himself?
and the person that first replied to you is forgetting of course that he is also the drummer for queens of the stone age...and he started some sh*tty metal band a while back as well []
Christ, you people embarrass yourselves when you make up lies like this. First of all, Dave was a huge fan of Tenacious D when they first appeared on HBO. Before they were big, and it was just Jack and Kyle. Somehow, they all became friends, and Dave offered to play drums for them on the CD's and on national TV appearances when he could do it, because he loved the band and they were his friends.
Through the friendship they have helped each other out with things, including Tenacious D boys starring in "Learn to Fly" video back in the late 90's and Dave agreed to play Satan simply because they asked him to do it.
He's not a band member, he's just a friend that helps out when they ask. And they became friends because he's a huge fan of their act.
Idiots are fun. No wonder every village wants one. Also, Dave has said a number of times that he hates acting and can't watch himself in the movie and only agreed to do it because he's a huge fan and want to help them any way he can.
