A friend of McKenzie’s, playing the moon, spoke to the audience “with her head through this moon thing”; McKenzie was part of a three-piece band dubbed the Sleepless Knights, wearing rented suits of armour.He’s still not sure how but his silent turn was spotted by Tolkien fanatics, who called him Figwit (an acronym for “Frodo is great … who is that?? It's actually a really good recording. It was made almost entirely of salvaged materials, including wood sourced from McKenzie's dad's property. "A lot of being an artist is getting turned down. "Whitwell says: "If they had been accepted none of them would have turned out as well as this and we wouldn't necessarily have been able to do it here. We definitely found ourselves having to work quite hard to find material that we hadn't already done, that wasn't another version of a similar idea. On a smaller scale, things like that do happen quite a lot for us. The Flight of the Conchords star, who is guest curating the New Zealand festival, reflects on his career and the cost of compromiseHe now travels to the US only for meetings, returning to his wife and three children in Wellington.McKenzie has half of the show’s tunes left to compose and a matter of weeks in which to finish them, but writing funny songs, he says, still feeds him spiritually.Although he’s one of Wellington’s best-known pop cultural exports – as a musician, songwriter, actor and comedian – nobody makes a fuss when Bret McKenzie arrives in a central city cafe.Their comedy was deeply strange, and audiences couldn’t get enough. !”), gave him a website, some slightly disturbing fan art and an unexpected moment of global fame.

A story about the Figwit phenomenon appeared on the cover of USA Today.When he and Clement travelled to the Edinburgh fringe festival to perform as Flight of the Conchords, they found that those Tolkien fans had flown in from around the world to attend the shows. McKenzie said.Seriously? The metal and some of the fixtures were from a caravan, canvas came from an old Scout tent, the central ridge pole was from an old tent belonging to the family of a friend from the West Coast. '""Oh yeah," he said, thoughtfully. He's 43 now and he's starting to forget things. “It’s sort of enlightening and it makes me feel connected to the universe.”For the New Zealand festival, McKenzie is planning a week-long programme featuring local music, an outdoor adventure for families and performances by the Netherlands clowning group Släpstick, which he says is “just a really good time”. Martin, now 46, told him: "I tour a lot and it's kind of lonely. “And then when I’d run in to bowl, I was a fast bowler but sometimes I would do sort of a pirouette on my run to distract the batter.”At 14 he gave up ballet for music, channelling his obsessive energies into “hours and hours” of practising drums.
