Dude, I paid for freestyle, and I pick this front row middle seat you THINK you're sitting in all night... "

Actually, lets make this idea really freestyle, I'm thinking --- bring your own chair and you get to put it where you like. Like, on the stage between two that are already there, perhaps. " title="" border="0"/>

This post is making me

Could I just put my chair directly in front of Bret's chair, facing Bret? That would make the world's most awkward concert experience for everyone in the venue who isn't me.

Could this please be arranged? [image]

I think Ami should get a chair in front of Jemaine. Might as well double the awkwardness, yeah?

Whoever is in charge of this sort of thing, please? [image]

Jess can sit between Nigel and Taika. <img src=

If we're really going to freestyle, I'd probably ditch the chair and choose to sit on Jemaine's lap. I think he'd be able to handle the guitar around me! <img src=

I think Laura should sit in front of Nigel. [image]

There is evidence of Taika playing [url=guitar][/url] and [url=ukulele][/url]! and [url=dancing][/url].... [image]

Oh, us and our imaginations. [image]

Last time I make a Taika assumption. <img src=

I still might want to see the dancing the most. [image]

Haha...this freestyling is really evolving, I likes it! Seeing as we all seem rather keen on awkwardness, I say the guys and us form a circle on stage. All facing inwards. It's slightly anti-social regarding the rest of the crowd but would be awkward to the max so it seems like a must. <img src=

A Conchord as a chair. VERY good call.

Thank you for that mental image. They can just get rid of the microphones too, since we'll all be close enough to hear them.

The audience can find a way to amuse themselves.

[size=133:oxwav8ft]Mirror Tickets top ten: Flight of the Conchords tickets dominate
By Elaine Quirke 19/03/2010

[size=100:oxwav8ft]Flight of the Conchords tickets knocked V Festival off the top spot this week.

Demand for the comedy duo's quirky sense of humour has over-taken the sold out music festival as this week's top ticket seller.

The New Zealand act recently released tickets for two new dates, Manchester Apollo on May 8th and Wembley Arena on May 25th, after their original tour dates sold out in no time.

Flight of the Conchords' Wembley Arena tickets sold out within just 20 minutes on Friday (...)

No, thank YOU! Oh gosh... no microphones... [image]

Now why aren't awkward shows popular, I wonder? As we have demonstrated, they're clearly very easy to arrange. *shrugs*

I've just updated the UK and Ireland show threads with seating plans for reference.

Thought it might be useful.

A new date added for London Wembley Arena on 18th May 2010.

Presale starts tomorrow.

I loved this part of the announcement:

[size=100:8jihwzwg]As Flight of the Conchords share in fans’ dismay on how tickets are being purchased and re-sold at higher prices, they are doing everything they can to try to minimize, if not hopefully eliminate, this practice.. In that spirit, this will be [size=133:8jihwzwg]the first ever show at Wembley Arena where tickets have to be collected on the night of the show at the venue.

_{(emphasis mine)}

and a

I love that they are doing so much to try and ensure tickets go into the hand of the fans at face value.

This is so amazing! I've never heard of it being done before this way, at least not for the entire event (rather than just the first few rows).

Are our boys anti-scalping pioneers? [image]

How awesome would that be?

Think of all the people/bands that have performed there, yet lo and behold, it's a little two man comedy band from New Zealand that changes the ways. [image]

for being so dedicated to their fans
