When I launched AtomicNed.com last year (first post – April 4), I wanted to start out with a bang. I had been sitting on an unreleased Fig Dish CD for a few years, one that I knew people were dying to hear and by putting it up as one of my first posts, I suspected I could drive a lot of traffic to this new venture of mine. A year later and over 350 of you have downloaded the CD that David Cobb and I refer to as Onanism (look it up for yourself!).
So what could I do to reward you, fair readers of AtomicNed.com? Well, in 2006 the mighty Fig Dish reunited for a handful of shows, one of which David and I went to at Schuba’s in Chicago (David flew in from Houston, I flew in from Columbus). We were fortunate to run into a fellow Fig Dish fan – Dave – who recorded the entire show and was kind enough to pass along a copy to David and I.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, as my gift to you on AtomicNed’s first birthday, here’s the March 4, 2006 “reunion” show in it’s entirety.

Many, many thanks to Dave (who actually posted this link just the other day in the comments section of the Fig Dish post I made year ago) and to Blake, Mike, Rick and Andy for putting on a helluva reunion show two years ago.
Now, I’ve got 365 days to convince the guys to record some brand new songs for AtomicNed.com’s 2nd birthday!
Thanks for this! I was at this show and it was great to see those guys together again. They were by far my favorite band of the 90’s. Hell, they’re still my favorite band now.
thank you so much for this. one of the best shows i have ever been to. maybe they can do another one someday.
Just to let you know, Fig Dish will be opening up for Local H @ the Beat Kitchen on May 7th. (Hamfisted Night)
Thank you for this and congrats on the first year of Atomic Ned!
