In just a few days, thousands of Phish fans will make their way to Commerce City, CO for the band’s traditional summer-closing three-night Labor Day weekend run at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The world of the Phish is still riding the high of the recent Baker’s Dozen residency at New York’s Madison Square Garden, prompting countless questions about the Dick’s run to come. After nixing the run’s usual setlist trickery for the first time last year, are Dick’s setlist games a thing of the past? Or, after 13 special themed nights at MSG, do Trey Anastasio, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, and Page McConnell have a few more surprises in store for the summer’s last stand?

Whatever happens when Phish takes the stage at Dick’s for their seventh consecutive year, at least one thing is certain: “we allllll dance!” (shoutout to homeboy in Bittersweet Motel). Ahead of Phish Dick’s ’17, one fan merged two beloved entities–Phish and smash-hit TV sitcom Seinfeld–for a “Tweezer” montage that has made the rounds on various Phish-related boards and Facebook groups over the last day or two. While everyone gets ready to get the funk down in the Rockies this weekend, check out the “SeinPheld” montage below…and if you have a problem with it, make a note to air your grievances this Festivus…(via Jack Abramson):
