[edit] David Letterman

Their appearance on the show was taped and broadcast on June 11th, 2007 and not in August as the article says. I know this as I attended the show personally. The guest of the episode was Dennis Leary.

[edit] Residence

I'm guessing this is referring to where they live in the HBO series, which has a red painted stone facade. This could either be moved to the Series entry, or removed due to irrelevance? 203.79.95.234 13:57, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Television Synopsis

Any plans on incorporating Episode Guides to the HBO program? Possibly song lists?

The Episode Guide is in the HBO Series entry, and each episode's entry has a song list. 203.79.95.234 13:54, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sample lyric

Is the sample lyric section really necessary? If there's just one lyric, then it seems silly... but I don't think there should be a huge quotes section either. Perhaps an audio sample? Isquitenice 03:06, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Improvised?

Do the conchords improvise their songs? --Dunkankan 03:56, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

As far as I know, they don't. There is an element of spontaneity is some of their songs, but for the most part, they're scripted. Isquitenice 04:07, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name?

Does someone know why they're named the way they are? Nicolasdz 03:51, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

NAME- From an interview published on EW.com:

"And why did you name yourselves Flight of the Conchords? MCKENZIE: There isn't really a good story. Other than...we shared...a dream. A vision. [Laughs] Jemaine's explanation will be completely different. CLEMENT: It was just, like, a last-minute thing. We had a gig and we didn't have a name. We had to come up with something quickly. We were considering Tanfastic. Which is the name of a suntan lotion." 64.207.110.114 01:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Phones4U

What did they do for the phones4u adverts? I don't remember this? --leopheard (talk) 11:13, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
