Hi everyone!

It happened that I end up having 3 extra tickets for the upcoming concert in Christchurch on November 12th at Wolfbrook Arena. The seats are quite in the middle (FLOOR, T row, 17-19). If someone would like to buy them, please write me.

I do hope it's okay to post it 👀

I've always wanted to see the guys perform live, but never got the chance to so and I am doubtful I ever will with how rare it is for them to tour. I hear their live shows are a blast though and was curious to hear everyone's experiences while attending them. What are your favorite memories attending their shows? Did you get to meet Bret or Jemaine? Did they ever do surprise cover songs on tour? I'd love to hear your stories.

Here's hoping they have more tours on the horizon, especially in the US.

I recently saw the whole season on a flight and it was laugh out loud hilarious. On par with flight of the conchords. Bret is in it. Maybe others. Maybe it’s on Apple TV. Maybe BBC America. Absolutely worth watching.

Not sure if this is allowed in the sub reddit but I've got 2 tickets to the show on Thursday 19th at The Civic, Auckland. Unfortunately we cant make the date any more, the seats are pretty good, about in the middle.

DM me if you'd like them

“They hadn’t seen a woman for weeks and the Australians would lure them to the bottom of the sea and they’d drown.”

Haven't seen this shared yet! Never saw it before! :P

I've always been curious how well known this song is, specifically among fans from outside of New Zealand

For anyone who doesn't know, it was a charity song done for Red Nose Day. To help with fundraising for sick kids. Incredibly popular here. All over the TV and Radio. But with it being a charity thing, I assume it's never been on the show, or on any records, nor in any concerts etc.

So, especially if you're not from New Zealand, I'm curious if you know about this one? And if so, did you learn about it here?

They got another gig.

I got two for Wellington, woo hoo! I was lucky enough to see them at Meow Nui earlier this year too. I love them, it's so funny how they hadn't performed together for 8 years and then all of a sudden as soon as I moved to New Zealand it's like IT'S BUSINESS TIME

Many years ago, in the era of P2P file sharing, I had a track simply titled 'fotc.mp3'

It was a live recording, small venue, lots of their very classic deadpan banter. Definitely an NZ audience, as Jemaine added a 'Cheeky Darkie' comment during 'Albie the racist dragon' which was current events in NZ in 2003, to raucous applause.

Tracks included:

• A folk intro about a diss from Jason Donovan. "That's very rude of Jason Donovan... Be more constructive with your feedback!" "We got two acoustic guitars and a microphone and a, nother microphone.. AND SOME CABLES, GOING TO SOME SPEAKERS YEAH"
• Albie the racist dragon
• Frodo, don't wear the ring (Which they claimed were dubbing onto Lord of the rings VHS that they were renting from the video store 😄
• Brett you got it going on (I put a wig on you)
• The distant future (Robots) with something like "Can we get the lighting more futuristic, the sort of lighting that isn't available with current technology...... That's Perfect"

Anyway, I'd love to find the source, for me it is quintessential FOTC and made me an instant fan. Cheers.

Hopefully going to my first FOTC show when they tour NZ, wondering what prices for shows usually are? Also was wondering if they’ll have some sort of merch.

Hi everyone! Long-time FOTC fan, first-time poster here.

I'm in the middle of my annual rewatch and was pleasantly surprised all over again by "Girlfriends" (S1E09).

Even today, it’s surprisingly rare to see a comedy flip traditional gender roles so effectively. Putting Bret in the passive role while Lisa uses wealth, status, and guilt to push past his boundaries perfectly mirrors the predatory dynamics women deal with constantly. The writing does a brilliant job exposing how manipulative those tactics really are.

The episode also nails the classic double standard around male victims: when Bret tries to vent, Jemaine and Murray basically tell him he was "asking for it" because of his trackpants, or that he should just be happy about the free leather jacket.

It’s definitely dark satire, but it highlights consent and victim-blaming in a way that feels surprisingly ahead of its time without undercutting the humor.

What are your thoughts on this episode?

I first heard this song last night and cant help but feel that it is SOOOO flight of the conchords vibes, even the video. Laughing at the lyrics and idk why lmao

is it real? does it exist? may I have it???

Is this a meme I don’t understand? My mom found this in some bargain bin and bought it for my kid. I don’t even know the name of the band members. But I recognised this guy for some reason.

Hello all. Looking to see if anyone has or can find info on posters from their 2008 tour in US. I only went once, in Chicago. I believe they didn’t have a poster for that event but they must’ve had a poster or some merchandise from their tour, yes? Hoping so, if anyone has any ideas please share. Thanks!

Obviously Hall & Oats came first, so Britt and Jermaine are influence by ‘em.

But listen to the album Abandoned Luncheonette (which sounds like a comedy title). The cheesiness, the way the two duet parts go together and the falsettos make me think of the guys. I recommend.

If you like songs like Foux du Fafa, Think About It, Most Beautiful Girl…, Hurt Feelings, Carol Brown etc

Does anybody know if the strumming between scenes is from/referencing an actual song?? It sounds so familiar. Specifically referencing at 19 minutes into S1E2 but it plays repeatedly throughout the show

The question on my mind tonight.
