Review: Goth 2 A Flame, the new musical comedy act by Jemaine Clement and Jonny Brugh, shares the same magic that made Flight of the Conchords world famous. Twenty-eight years ago, Jemaine Clement first performed at Wellington’s BATS Theatre alongside Bret McKenzie in the comedy troupe So You’re a Man. The two would go on to form the band Flight of the Conchords, arguably New Zealand’s greatest comedy export. Similar to Conchords, the characters are earnest but dim-witted musicians, and the humour comes from their awkward, unaware songwriting. During the second song, Clement couldn’t get his guitar playing through the amp.
