This was the one music video that I worked on in my career as a P.A. It was shot on a stage off of La Cienega and Blackwelder St. The exteriors were shot at Huntington Gardens in San Marino. It was the two longest days of my life. I was from Chicago and had just moved to L.A. I knew the guys from Chicago, so it was a fun sort of reunion for me.

classic

[doctorshifty83]

I meant the movie "Empire Records"...not the record label

[genmaximus110]

I miss Summer of '97. It's a shame the only time I saw Fig Dish live was when I didn't know who they were. I went out and bought their CDs after the concert, but I was there mostly for Local H. Veruca Salt also played that night. It was really a kick-ass concert, but Fig Dish was new to me so I didn't know any of the songs.

[doctorshifty83]

@genmaximus110 You know if this song is featured on Empire Records?...I could have sworn I saw it in the credits, but don't remember hearing it.

[genmaximus110]

@doctorshifty83 My CD says the recording company is Atlas.

[Samhain35]

@doctorshifty83 The FD song "Chew Toy" intro was the one used in the Empire Records movie. It's on the same album (That's What Love Songs Often Do) as 'Seeds'.

[doctorshifty83]

@Samhain35 That's right. Thanks.

[antblue363]

I can see it now Your gonna spiral down

[peyoteugly]

oh man.

memories.

great jam.

[jbranin]

Drunk Ted used to rave about fucking Fig Dish. I never got into them as much as he did.

[demian113]

Love this song! Fig Dish was an opener at the 1st show I ever went to!!!

[painhertz]

This was my second placed band behind Hum at the time, great lyrics and sound, AWFUL FUCKING name. Really, Fig Dish?

[Samhain35]

Hehe.....the story goes that they chose "fig dish" as a phonetic pun on the German "F*** You" that they got from a German bar owner after being thrown out......

[painhertz]

I've never understood the concept of "Power Pop", if it has ANY power, it just....ummm...rock. Don't dis this band or any other by calling it "Power Pop". Michael Jackson was POP. Long may he get singed in the place he is now.

[ctobolka]

VERY under-rated band , wish they were still around because their music would be relevant to today's music

[painhertz]

One of the TRUE classics from the 90's. Sad that recording companies STILL can't seem to get it right.....

[voivod]

I bought this album in a $1 bin in Berkeley, CA in 1997.

[bartcummins]

got it cheap, too.

got it cuz of a tom petty cover

[xrtgx22]

I also bought it for $1 at amoeba music!

[amandafriday1]

where did u go? ive been looking 4 u guys.

[stinkykittylaur]

Does anyone have their first album? waah! i couldnt find their CD anymore..... :( hope someone could help me...im desperate! :(

[ajharker]

You can find both albums on amazon used through one of their third party sellers. I rebaught both albums that way recently and got them for like $2.50 each and they look brand new. Just make sure the seller you buy from has a high rating.

[xrtgx22]

Look on ebay. There's tons of listings for only a buck plus $3 shipping.

[boojwahz]

these guys were awesome. i saw them live once (they opened for someone, possibly veruca salt) and was hooked. ran out and got both their albums. my sister wrote them a letter and they sent her back a hand written note with band stickers. they were cool as shit. where are they now?

[bartcummins]

great chicago sound, missed them by 14 years, shit.

[antblue363]

rockin!

[genmaximus110]

Anybody know any site that gives lyrics for Fig Dish. I love the band, but some songs I have no idea what they are saying half the time.

[genmaximus110]

I miss Fig Dish! And Local H! Those were good times.

[jstep1973]

How I loved this band. I agree with the "should've been huge" thing.

[genmaximus110]

It really was a shame.  I always hoped for a third album from them.

[surfinterp]

These guys should have been huge...every song rocks

[Shlongy]

I agree. I still play "eyesore" in my car everyday...and I'm 47 years old.

[bloodofbambi]

sweet vid. thanks for posting, and for the heads up on Prairie Cartel.

[orphanejk]

thes guys rocked.. where are they now?

[mcast10]

If anyone can post a video with the song "quiet storm king", I'd really appreciate it...

[Samhain35]

There was no vid for QSK. :(

[Falldown07]

Wow... didn't think I would find this on youtube.

[georgetime]

Awesome, reminds me of Senior year.

[JetSetApathy]

my favorite song by them

[fichte5000]

Man, I saw a crowd rough this band up in Columbus. People wanted them to hurry up so Local H could get on. Anybody seen their "when shirts get tight" video anywhere? I heard it's a little scandalous.

[Samhain35]

Yeah, Playboy called that vid one of the top 10 sexiest music videos of all time a couple of years back. In fact, I think it came in like #2 in reader voting.

The vid has everything - porn starlets, hemi 'cudas, double-necked guitars, blow pops, and a donkey...

[idiotracing]

I thought I was the only person who dug these guys....

[Etherialshroud]

This brings back soo many good memories

[yousankmybattleship]

Saw them open up for Dishwalla and Letters to Cleo. They were awesome.
