Tenacious D To Rock WGA Rally

Tenacious D will be rocking their soli-fuckin-darity this Friday when they appear at the WGA rally in Burbank. The rally, in front of FremantleMedia (4000 W. Alameda), is intended to help expose the “deplorable industry practices” of the reality show producers.

The list of shows that FremantleMedia produces includes American Idol, The Next Great American Band, America’s Got Talent and probably a lot of other shows with “America” in the title. Writers of these shows are currently not under Guild jurisdiction, and many of them work “without standard industry benefits including health insurance, residuals, pension contributions, and proper credits.”

The rally begins at 12, and more special guests are expected to be announced. Carson Daly, also pictured above, will not be there. He will be busy producing his show using scab writers.
