As LAist announced yesterday, rumors have been swirling that the Flight of the Conchords will be joining Jon Brion during one of his Largo at the Coronet shows tonight. Today's message on the Largo phone line confirmed that Brion's first show at 8:30 p.m. will also feature "a couple of crazy bastards from New Zealand." Some tickets will be available for $30 cash at the door, and those wanting a confirmed seat should probably arrive......

The Flight of the Conchords via their MySpace page Rumor has it, according to one post on the Fairfax Avenue, word on the street is that the Flight of the Conchords may open for Jon Brion tomorrow night at Largo at the Coronet.

After performing in a number small venues last year (Largo, Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre, etc .) the Flight of the Conchords made their triumphant return to Los Angeles this week during a sold-out show at the El Rey Theatre on July 11. The growing popularity of the group was apparent in the weeks leading up to the gig, during which people on Craigslist were offering upwards of $300 for a pair of tickets. On......
