Who is the September 13 SNL Host and Musical Guest? Jack Black, with Musical Guests Elton John and Brandi Carlile. Black returned to SNL for the first time in 20 years and delivered some true musical treats, on top of performances from already legendary Musical Guests Elton John and Brandi Carlile. One highlight included "Goth Kid on Vacation," a glorious celebration of goth teens forced to accompany their family on sunny beach vacations. Black did his best My Chemical Romance impression in the middle of a reggae bop, and it's weird how well it works.
