Donald Glover 'Will Give You Your Money Back' If Childish Gambino Tour Isn’t 'Best Live Show You’ve Ever Seen'

Donald Glover is confident in what he’s put together for the upcoming Childish Gambino tour.

In a Hot Ones episode shared mere hours before the rollout of the final Gambino album, Bando Stone & the New World, Glover looked back on some insight into the character’s journey he previously received from none other than RZA. This is particularly noteworthy, of course, due to the Gambino moniker having initially come about thanks to a Wu-Tang name generator.

"It’s a story of a child turning into a boss," Glover told Sean Evans when reflecting on the end of Gambino's journey about 19 minutes into the video below. The Bando Stone-supporting New World Tour, kicking off next month, is entirely "for the fans" and is thus being teased as an experience guaranteed to meet expectations.

"This last sunset walk is really about, this is for the fans," Glover said. "This is for you. If this isn’t the best live show you've ever seen, after the song if you’re like 'Yeah, I gotta go,' you can leave and I will give you your money back. That’s how much I care about all of this. That’s not a joke. My lawyers will be like, 'It’s a joke.' But it’s not a joke."

As previously reported, Bando Stone is billed as the soundtrack to a soon-to-be-released film of the same name. In a recent conversation with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Glover said the earliest version of the film idea dates back to his time as Troy Barnes on Community.

"I just didn’t have the time," he said of the story's years-long path to fruition.

A trailer for the film, released in June, introduced fans to the title character, a singer who’s seemingly caught up in some deeply dire end-of-the-world situation or something damn near it. Also featured in the two-minute clip is Jessica Allain, whose character pulls a gun on Glover's Bando Stone at one point.

Glover is no stranger to ensuring his Gambino album releases each serve as large-scale happenings, not mere drops. Because the Internet, which pairs nicely with the newly released Bando Stone in more ways than one, saw the Atlanta and Mr. & Mrs. Smith alum releasing an accompanying screenplay focused on that concept album's main character, The Boy. A short film, "Clapping for the Wrong Reasons," was also released around the same time and is intended as a prelude to the larger story.
