Flight Of The Conchords have just announced a European tour, which we’re pleased to report pitches up in Dublin on May 5 and 6 for shows in the Olympia. Tickets go on sale this Friday priced €39.20.
“Flight Of The Conchords has had a great relationship with the U.K. in the past,” says Jermaine Clement, a.k.a. the Hiphopopotamus of their upcoming jaunt. “In some ways you could say we got our start there, and we were always over at the U.K.’s house. But then one night, some heated words were said and Flight Of The Conchords left in a huff. We haven't been back since. That was five years ago. Now, we're coming back to say we're sorry. We'll also be visiting our old friend Ireland, an acquaintance that we had an uneasy first date with called 'The Netherlands' and some countries we have never met called Norway and Sweden.”
They’re being supported by Kristen Schaal who plays Conchords fan-turned-stalker Mel in their TV series. Her acting and voice-over C.V. also includes Law & Order, South Park and the upcoming Toy Story 3.
