"Mutha'uckas" - Flight of the Conchords @ The Paramount 5/12/09

Me and Maddy got to sit through a Q&A session with Flight of the Conchords, and then they played a few songs for us and a group of only about 25 people at The Paramount, in Seattle, WA on Tuesday afternoon before their night show, May 12th, 2009. :)

What an amazing experience, how'd ya manage that invite?? Are there any more vids? How many tunes, what else did they play?

I'm on the steering committee at The Vera Project, and they sent out an e-mail to members of Vera and the first few to reply back got in :) Videos weren't allowed and they were really strict about it, so this one is actually lucky. They played only like 6 songs total and we had a Q&A session

Could you tell us what were the questions? I'm really curious whether they are working on the third season.

[evilord187]

They're probably working on the third season, I don't see why they wouldn't. They're really the buzz right now you know? And I asked them 1) If you were to devote an entire different life to something other than your comedy act/music, what would it be? and Jemaine said he wanted to be an inventor but he had nothing to invent, Bret said a doctor. 2) If you were on the death row, what would your last meal be? Jemaine said something simple, Bret said something elaborate so he could live longer haha

[YourOtherLeftFoot]

ah! I was there, I remember you asking the death row question.

[Deadlydanish]

Nah. They took a break because they wanted to. HBO would kill to have them back.  An exec even said he was hoping for it.

I can only quote Mel, "That sucks! It's bullsh*t!" Can't they see that FOTC is a hen with golden eggs? Not to mention that they are FUNNY. Well, I can only hope that they'll continue doing the show keeping their sense of humour, not the tv producers.

[TheFruitThtAteItself]

They got cancelled because HBO didn't understand the humour. But I think that NBC or Comedy Central is going to pick up the show.

Damn HBO.

I was at the show the next day! Bret is a good friend of my uncle, who lives and owns a bar in New Zealand where the Conchords used to play waaaaaay back in the day. So my uncle got me and a friend backstage.

Seriously the sweetest guys I have ever met in my life!
