@TheMetalPenguin Perhaps the fact you attempted to use 'deliberate grammatical error'? Meh, I suppose it doesn't matter either way. But I would like to get something accross:
1. I KNEW it was "put an end to my strife" I said that in my first comment.
2. I said "you'd think it would be more noticeable" I.E. you should be able to tell the difference, but their accents made it difficult.
It wasn't a grammatical error, it was a heavy New Zealand accent.
I'm sure that this is why the picture is in the slideshow, but if Andy Kaufman was still alive I think the guy over Jermaine's right shoulder at 2:30, is what he'd look like
Adrian Pryor is what he shouts. His real name is Age Pryor. Adrian is his nickname or stage name. You can find out more on Wikipedia or just use Google.
I'm confused. Are you saying that Adrian Pryor wrote this song? Because this is Flight of the Conchords. Or are you saying that someone mentioned him....or something?
Age Pryor played guitar and mandolin in the live band that's playing this song (and all other songs on their recording of the 2002 Folk The World Tour).
Brett was giving a lil' shout-out to his fellow band member that was playing with them.
1st, thank you for putting this on youtube, been looking for it for ages!
2nd, thank you noodle for writing 'Age Pryor' - been trying to work out what that name is since i got this track, thought it was adrian pryor so couldn't find him on wiki.
3rd. wiki says age pryor does the guitar and mandolin on this track for fotc - this would imply that bret & jemaine ARE singing. sounds to me like brets doing the main bits and jemaines backing.
Why have I never heard this before?! This is a fantastic quirky little Conchords song. Hmm, they really weren't kidding when they said most of their early tunes were about murder lol.
