Flight of the Conchords...

It seems like an eternity since we purchased our FOTC tickets. Talk about a long wait... but the blessed day finally arrived. After dinner at Squatters with Candace, Jason, Ryleigh, Kim and myself, we met up with Scott, Jenn, Carri, BJ and Eric (who were a couple rows behind us). It was also nice seeing my two former roommates Steve and Kurt (and his wife Krista.) It was quite the mini-reunion. Unfortunately there was not much time for catching up, there was a full night of comedy to be enjoyed.
Arj Barker (who also appears on the HBO series) kicked it off with a hilarious NSFW-laugh-out-loud opening act. Then with some cheap robot costumes and some laser lights Bret and Jemaine took the stage to the overwhelming cheers of the crowd. I managed to snag a few good shots, although most turned out blurry. The charming New Zealand duo did not disappoint, performing some of my favorite's such as Too Many Dicks on the Dance Floor, I'm Not Crying [It's Just Raining On My Face], Albi the Racist Dragon and Tears of a Rapper... along with many more. Oh and how could I forget about Business Time? The show was amazing, I was sad when I realized it was over but entirely worth the wait! Roll on the floor laughter, good friends and of course Bret and Jemaine. What a night!
