Flight of the Conchords

Near the end of August I had a scary little item on my calendar... a reunion. Yeah, that's right, we're all getting older and apparently we like to mark the milestones with celebrations. Hmmmm. Thankfully the high school reunion was much more fun than I was initially expecting and I was very glad to have gone. I might add, in case they're reading, that Kate & Shannon did a great job organizing the evening. And on top of their great organization skills, one might call them an organization duo, they introduced me to another duo named Flight of the Conchords.

Now if you haven't already heard, Flight of the Conchords are New Zealands #3 Folk Parody Duo. They used to be #2, but that's another story altogether. Some of their claims to fame include trying to promote acceptance, stewardship of the earth, and of course being the inventors of rap music in New Zealand.

I've included two of their more notable songs below. Enjoy.
