Flight of the Conchords - The road to Edinburgh Festival Fringe - The Living Room

- Опубліковано 12 січ 2016
- This is an early screen showing for "music comedy phenomenon" Flight of the Conchords. The excerpts from arts show The Living Room follow Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement from Wellington to performances at the 2002 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Dreams of fame come face to face with budget digs, Jonah Lomu and anonymity, which the duo face with their droll resolve. Larry Pritchard (Taika Waititi) takes on the role of manager, pre Rhys Darby. The next year the Conchords were nominated for a Perrier Award, en route to an HBO TV series and cult stardom.

oh god imagine being able to go back in time and tell these three men that one was going to win an oscar, one was going to direct the highest-grossing Thor movie and one was going to be a sparkly crab in a children's movie. Truly impressive work.
Update: TWO were going to win an Oscar :p
@@jomo87 pfft it's no sparkly crab though, is it?
(sidenote YEY I'M SO HAPPY FOR TAIKA!)
He's a SHINY crab
Update: 2 win oscars and one is Boris the animal / Tamatoa
@@silves5412 exactly. Shiny! Sparkly does not cover it.
1. Taika hasn’t aged, 2. The way Jemaine says croissant and baguette is very soothing 😂😂😂😂 the humour is immaculate 😂😂❤️❤️
I wish Taika would've been on the show
Arekun I do too, although he was on there for five seconds as "Gypsy Kings fan", at least according to IMDb
Arekun I think he might of been the director at least on some of the eps.
Writer of a few episodes too, including the finale.
Nhah I think Murray is a better character overall. If Taika did the part there would be a possibility that the show would be.. too much his. Hope yu know that I mean :)
Arekun i agree he would sang every song wut fotc sang
I'm a Jemaine fangirl for life, but... can we just talk about how adorable Taika is?
What-If Machine yes, let's talk about it. 😂
So adorbs and baby faced!
Yeah
I don’t know what it is about Jermaine but he is so attractive.
Jemaine has a sexy voice
it's the most New Zealand thing ever that they randomly bump into Jonah Lomu at the airport. It's like the most over the top way of defining their location, but it actually happened.
The biggest 'take away' for me from watching this is that Taika appears not to have aged a day in the last 15 years.
Nx Doyle Apart from a completely new colour of hair being grey of course.
Spoof Boogie Woof Woof He suits grey so much!
@@DollOfTheDamnedKiwis have such incredible salt and pepper hair, Im so jelly
He's a vampire after all
The keyboard's called Korg...
Ah yes.... Fu Do Fafa, that timeless French classic.
Foux du fafa, you mean.
the KORG keyboard really ties the Taika content binge together
I was just thinking that
Not only funny and creative, these three are hunky as anything.
Also smart and talented musicians.
its sad for me that they cant be seen more in the future :_'
Taika would of been great as a character who buys out FOTC on the show and becomes like a more hard ass manager. Then Murray gets them back through some kind of loophole in their contract.
Greasy McNasty this would have been a great episode tbh
Oh my god, Taika is in this and the keyboard is made by Korg
Hahaha yes!
Maybe the creation of Korg was influenced by Korg
@@user7421 - the Marvel character *Korg* was in the comics in *1962!* Taika wasn't born until 13 years later! That keyboard was like an omen of his future.
“That’s not a spoiler... that’s a boomerang”
Never knew this existed, just discovered it by accident. Made my day. Rhys Darby is the one and only Murray, but it's interesting to see where the character came from. I know Taika wrote and directed a few episodes, but wonder why he never made an appearance? Or did he have a cameo maybe?
He did a small cameo in the show as a Gypsy Kings fan on a commercial.
"if I can make just one girl laugh, it's all worthwhile" bruh same.
I cant believe this was almost 20 yes ago!! They didnt do to bad for themselves did they. Love FOTC
"Hey man, I'm Korg"
Steve ross what a coincidence the piano is Korg!
dinofinger yeah as soon as i saw it i wa$ like "fuck thats cool"
@@barneybbates - lucky they didn't have a Roland!
totally at ua-cam.com/video/HNvoSKwrGQQ/v-deo.html
"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Korg. I'm
kind of like the leader in here. I'm made of rocks, as you can see, but don't
let that intimidate you. You don't need to be afraid, unless you're made of
scissors! Just a little Rock, Paper, Scissors joke for you."
He's freaking gone
I saw somebody say that Korg was defeated by paper due to not enough pamphlets.
Couldn't help notice the big KORG on the keyboard and had to giggle
Aww they look so young. Love seeing Taika here as well.
As well as Flight of the Concords, one has gone onto win an Oscar and one has been nominated and may be again this year. Considering they are a group of mates in Newe Zealand they have gone onto achieve so much creatively. Absolutely astonishing.
Taika and Jemaine were both in "What we do in the shadows," right?
to watch this now with taika and a prominent KORG is kinda funky
RIP jonah
New Zealand comedy is sticky sweet . Great camera angles up Jermaine's neck . Love those big tuning keys
Why are the three of them so adorable
Gemma Kamarasti
It's people from New Zealand
I lived in oz for 12 years I know a few and are great people and funny
They have Afro hair?
They are not conventionally good looking but they are all so attractive 🤷🏻♀️
Jemaine's facial features are a bit too deep set to be considered classically handsome imo....
@@sydneyynzunza3361kinda like an ogre that works at a library… but handsome
Funny to think that when this came out Jonah Lomu would have been the most famous person in it by MILES.
You can hear Rhys Darby doing the band intro at 10:11.
King of mocumentaries
David Brent ?
hahaha. ''7 bucks is cheap, some cost like 12 bucks''
Conchords, Taika, Korg and Lomu? I'm sold
I never thought my life could get better, but here this is proving me wrong
This is a treasure. And taika is adorable! 🥰
Seen all of their work, esp Taika & Jemaine in "WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS". Genius of Hilarious!!!😁😄😅😆😂❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
And Jemaine just played Dr Garvin in Avatar, Way of Water! It was a pretty big role! He's sort of the moral conscience of the invaders.😁
HOLD ON. Rhys Darby said he met Taika Waititi in Edinburgh in 2002. Could this be the time they met each other?!!?
If only I went to university 13 years earlier I could've seen these guys in Edinburgh for free!!
From Wellywood to Hollywood. These 3 fullas have done alright but meeting Jonah Lomu 5:33 must still be the highlight
yum yum taika
2 of these 3 now have oscars. Nuts.
ty youtube for the random video recommendation. truly appreciate it
00:33 so that’s where Taika got Korgs name 😂😂😂
OMG they are so young!! love love love!!!! xoxoxo
they've seemingly gotten a tad old from then, but i'd still like to see them in the future without all the " "
R.I.P Jonah Lomu
i think i'm in love with that Jemaine guy - gosh i'm 17
yall they performed with rhys and im literally crying
My god taika looks so cuteeee 😍
They're treating the Lebaron like a limo. Classic.
Bret looks solo young clean shaven. gorgeous features. love Jermaines bum chin and sexy lips. yumo
Karan Field calm down lol
Alan Malcheski Lebaron...
The Limo of sedans
It's an Australian Ford LTD.
Great upload, thanks!
I came here are watching "what we do in the shadows" and being a huge lotr fan
I noticed figwit/Lindir too omgggggg
Taika is basically a jerk version of Murray from the tv show lmao. Also so bummed he never appeared on the show. Please make a movie!
Actually he did appear on the show. He was in the telephone commercial in ep 7. It was an ep he wrote and directed.
God I just love these guys!!
Taika is great, it would have been even better if he was in the series as well. But Murray was much better character as a manager though. So I'm glad they changed that...
HolandaChiquita Aka Brian Nesbitt
They could've written a role for him. He could've been their landlord of something. I never understood how they paid rent in New York.
this is still my favorite video on the internet
I love that they recycled Jemaine’s studio compartment bit for the show!
What a delightful road for these talented people? From Playing to Working, hugs!
Holy cow they are so young I didn't even recognize them at first!!!
Awww look at baby Bret
Im french and i actually like it
gives a good well needed laugh, even though its old, i still like it, we need shows with substance '^'
I mean this as no insult, but Jemaine should really do books on tape for a living.
The great Jonah lomu
rip big jonah
fantanstic guys
6:05-6:20 is great acting and a sad moment
What a wonderful moment with Jonah lomu 4 of nzs wonderful producer actors musicians and rugby icon in one lovely
Weird to see them with a competent manager!
Two of the three now have Oscars.
oooo this is awesome, its like an extra episode
That KORG keyboard couldn’t just be a coincident
Imagine if they'd had a Hammond!
(or even a Farfisa...)
A wild Jonah appears! RIP big man
Love Jemaine, Taika, Bret❤❤❤❤❤ AND ALL THEY'VE ENTERTAINED US!!!!
I'm so glad Bret took his character away from this and more in to the Bret we know and love.
I kinda dig this. It's about five years away from the show and it feels like it's just a younger, dumber and slightly more arrogant version of Bret
Korg makes a cameo at 5:37
RIP Jonah
I love these 💖💖💖💪😂
Come to Stuttgart jaaaaaa! :)
Jemaine looks too "normal" in those glasses, I can't get used to this! lol
Still the greatest Taika performance to date.
Omg Bret looks so young!
Still waiting for that Vegas gig!
The Keyboard has KORG on it ..easter 🍳
Banshee Boii
💣💥💣💥💣💥💣💥
That's what you just did to my mind right now 🤕
Knowing HBO’s Murray is basically a Taika exaggeration is just icing on the cake as a Conchord and Taika fan
Korg on the Keyboard
😅
Taika totally paid those people at the end lul
KORG LIFE
*sitting in front of Korg synth*
"Acoustic folk artist"
Brilliant
Chardon is so nice. Cheers guys
I did not expect jonah lomu to show up
Girl at the end ❤️
how have I never seen this
Hah, I just happened to be in Edinburgh last August while the 2023 Festival was happening. So much competition. I don't know how anyone gets noticed. But it worked for FOTC and Tim Minchin.
OMG, Baby Bret and Baby Jemaine!
Bro the piano is KORG
jemaine is sooo hot
Hill yiss he is.
rat I LOVE THAT THESE COMMENTS ARE SO RECENT AND THIS VIDEO IS SO OLD, I AGREE JEMAINE IS GORGEOUS LETS BE FRIENDS 😂😂😂
shiny shemaine probably because ppl just discovered jemaine! hahaha!
What-If Machine I've found you on every Jemaine video...well, some of them
You came here after seeing Tamatoa, right? 🌚
u one oh deh ladies at the end of the video
Is there anything in the FotC lore about the transition from Larry to Murray? If not, that needs to be explored.
this must be where taika took an idea for KORG xD
My tired eyes totally went cartoon bulge-eyed when i saw the korg. Omg.
Young Early or mid 20s taika smoking a blunt making beats and filming
It's like they're taped together....with some kind of powerful adhesive.
0:33 Bret's failed audition for the role of "Korg." I don't think he quite "got" the character though.
"some cost like 12 bucks"
surprised it’s not pouring in Edinburgh
