Flight of the Conchords live at Arovideo – Wednesday 13th February

BREAKING NEWS!

This just in from those fine folk at Arovideo:

It is our pleas­ure (and abso­lute thrill) to announce that Arovideo will be play­ing host to the hot­test act in New Zea­l­and (and pos­sibly the world) right now, “Flight of the Conchords”.

In sup­port of the loc­al release of their widely-acclaimed HBO TV show on DVD, Bret and Jemaine will be per­form­ing a short set live in store from 10am, Wed­nes­day the 13th of Feb­ru­ary, at 97 Aro Street in Wel­ling­ton.

Then from 10.30am until 12pm, they will be sign­ing cop­ies of the DVD, which will be avail­able to buy on site at $39.95 for the 2‑disc set.

Space lim­it­a­tions on the ground floor of our store mean this will be a very intim­ate, exclus­ive event indeed, and entry will be on a “first come, first served” basis. While we can­not guar­an­tee you will gain entry for the per­form­ance itself, their should be ample oppor­tun­ity to meet the guys, espe­cially if you are armed with a copy of their fant­ast­ic DVD! There will be eft­pos facil­it­ies avail­able, though cash is recom­men­ded.

What more do you need to know people!

Flight of the Conchords: Bret dances when he’s angry

Footloose – so much to answer for…

FOTC Wednesday: Frodo is great.… who is that?

This ia friendly pub­lic ser­vice announce­ment that the object of much lust is the sub­ject of a doc­u­ment­ary about his being such an object of lust that screens tomor­row night on Prime at 8.30pm. Accord­ing to the IMDB entry, Frodo Is Great… Who Is That?!!,

The doc­u­ment­ary looks at the rise to celebrity status of NZ act­or and musi­cian Bret McK­en­zie, who appeared for 3 seconds as an extra in “The Lord of the Rings: The Fel­low­ship of the Ring”, dur­ing the Coun­cil of Elrond scene. His brief appear­ance sparked a huge inter­net fan-base ded­ic­ated to his “brood­ing pout” and “elvish good looks”. McK­en­zie has been dubbed “FIGWIT”, an acronym of “Frodo is Great; Who is That!!?”

So that’s prob­ably quite a nice war­mup to when Flight of the Conchords finally start screen­ing here on the 17th.

Flight of the Conchords: Bowie Song

It’s Wed­nes­day! Time for some Conchords…

Does the space cold make your nipples go all pointy?
And do you use your pointy nipples as tele­scop­ic antenna trans­mit­ting data back to Earth?
I bet you do you, you freaky old bas­tard you,
Do you have one really funky sequinned space­suit, man?
Or do you have sev­er­al ch-ch-ch-ch-changes?

Flight of the Conchords: Jenni

Nearly for­got! Flight of the Conchords Wed­nes­day!

“What a hil­ari­ous mis­un­der­stand­ing!”

My lyr­ics are bot­tom­less…
