Jack Black brings School of Rock to life

Actor Jack Black turned his School of Rock role into reality this week when he plucked two preteen musicians from obscurity and asked them to perform with his band in New Zealand.

Black – who turns a school class into a rock band in the 2003 comedy – was touring New Zealand’s South Island with his two-man band, Tenacious D, when he spotted the boys performing for money in central Christchurch on Monday.
