    NoteLyrics sung in multiple languages.

    Jam chartMonster NYE "Gag" version emerges from "Auld Lang Syne" to set the tone for 2026. Extra dancers/vocalists join the song proper, singing the "Tweezer" lyrics in multiple languages. Shenanigans subside, and the band gets down to business. What begins as energetic anthemic major key rock then traverses dynamically through multiple moods, including low boil minor-key psychedelia, maximalist effects-centered murk, delicate introspective play, and soaring peaks all while remaining tethered to a steady rhythmic pulse, before finally fading away > an outstanding "Piper".

    Jam chartMore than anything, this jam is defined by the wall of loops Trey builds from around 11-16min wherein the band executes one of the most unique peaks of the year. It's dimly lit as Mike roots everything through ominous playing, but the combo of wild loops and synths on top gives the impression of contained madness akin to the HAL 9000 systematically betraying the Discovery One. Moving from the peak of the jam, the back half is fairly standard in nature but accentuated by each member giving it their all. Perhaps not the most transgressive music you've heard from The Phish From Vermont, but the A for Effort is real here. Closing with a shreddy, psychedelic, 2.0 style peak, we return to the "Tweezer" riff on a high before fading > into a perfectly placed "Ruby Waves."

After 12:45 the jamming steadily gains traction with a new direction as an excellent rocking theme is developed and driven home with great aplomb until it dissolves > "Mercury".

    Jam chartIn contrast to some of the other monsters of recent years, this version stays tethered to "Tweezer" (or something close to it) for an extended period before it gradually peels away, but even while the jam remains within arm's reach of home, the play is fresh and engaging. From there the band embarks on an adventurous journey marked by constant evolution which flows remarkably well, making every new section feel like an organic extension of the same piece, all without relying on any of the well-worn paths one might expect a jam of this length to indulge in. And while this dynamic does not lend itself to a singular peak, the jam is ripe with recurring motifs and themes despite its freewheeling nature, perhaps culminating around 24:30 with Trey's long sustained note over a "MLB"-esque descent. > "Lonely Trip" to end this exhilarating ride.

    Jam chartThe second of a potent 1-2-3 punch, this "Tweezer" initially stews in layered psychedelic funk fitting for its festival setting, before shifting towards eruptive, celebratory rock. Mike's seismic bass bombs provide a platform for Trey's pumped-up blues rock heroics, before a return to the "Tweezer" theme signals a denouement, dissolving into scratchy guitar loops and > "Scents and Subtle Sounds".

    Jam chartLike a labyrinthine Hall of Mirrors, this "Tweezer" shifts through several moods and themes in impressionistic fashion. Fishman's cerebral, yet grounded grooving keeps the ship afloat as the band modulates between locked-in funk, abrasive dissonance, nearly rudderless psychedelia and finally a super catchy, Allman Brothers-inflected country rock section that turns anthemic. This then resolves back to the "Tweezer" theme and > a powerful "Pillow Jets".

Immediately afterward, things slow down and the "Tweezer" riff emerges. What follows is must-hear as the band has an extended outro, staying within the bounds of "Tweezer" until it has been fully deconstructed.

Around 11:20, Trey weaves back to the Tweezer riff, giving off this version might be incredibly compact. Instead, he pivots on a dime to a life-affirming major key jam. > into a fierce "Crosseyed".

    Jam chartBegins with a brief major tangent but then reverts to a typically rocking "Tweezer" jam, albeit in a different key, then finds its footing again with a segment anchored by Trey's off-kilter, cyclical lead. From there, it builds more conventionally until the main riff returns, seemingly to bring things to a close, but the band really makes a meal out of this denouement by running through different permutations of the "Tweezer" theme, reintroducing Trey's mid-jam riff, and closing with a Moog-ified final volley, then -> "Oblivion".

    Jam chartStraightforward jam until 9:15, when the key modulates and an "All Along The Watchtower"-esque progression takes shape (an ajamakinto "Watchtower," but no musical quote of its melody so no tease). They jam on this "Watchtower" progression for many measures, going "type II" to an extent in the process though Fish returns briefly within it here and there to "Tweezer's" drum line. Then there's another key modulation and Trey begins soloing melodically o'ertop beautiful accompaniment from Page, Mike and Fish. This improv eventually gels around an enchanting theme before the key modulates yet again and a steady, dark, heavy "type II" jam ensues. Fish soon brings back "Tweezer's" drum line, and Trey Mike and Fish briefly to "Tweezer's" melodic line and comping, as this jam fizzles out and "Wingsuit" begins after sustain.

    Jam chartJam is fairly straightforward for the first few minutes, but then there's a key modulation (type II activity afoot) and a funkaliciously melodic bridge of sorts occurs, before Page hops on the synth and Trey deploys some echoflex and then envelope filter effects. Soon melodic tension builds--slllowwwly though--courtesy of Page Mike and Trey, until there's a massive Floyd-esque echoplextastic dissonant sustained release/peak, of sorts. OF SORTS.

    Jam chartAfter beginning ordinarily enough, the jam eventually takes-on a Trey-led melodic theme reminiscent of "hose" improvisation, yet the "type I" form is maintained in a compellingly fierce manner. This theme-jam takes over four minutes to begin peaking, soaring, in a dizzyingly beautiful fashion, and then Trey turns on the syrupy envelope-filter effect, and Mike begins playing lead fucking bass, with fantastic accompaniment from Page, who then begins soloing a bit over this incredible groove being laid down by Mike, Trey and Fish around 16 mins in. Spine-tinglingly cool, repetitive, grooving takes over, and Trey begins soloing melodically o'er it before Fish returns to Tweezer's drum line, and the jam dissolves away as Trey nearly teases "Lifeboy" before Bitch begins. It's a safe bet that if this sick improv doesn't move you, then 4.0 Phish is not for you.

    Jam chartCourtesy of user @lizardwithaz: Patience is the key to this Tweezer, as Trey immediately gets a siren echo going and a commanding Mike takes over a laid-back soundscape, and doesn't let up. Once the band finds a groove and the siren loops drop out, Trey finds his way fully into the jam and guides the band through a jam fit for a lazy summer day, finding a fun progression to return to over and over, eventually finding the way to a ping-pong jam, with Mike, Page, and Trey all swatting notes back and forth before an incredibly satisfying drop into another Mike-led groove, highlighted by a "Tweezer Reprise"-ish progression and some thrilling hose!

    Jam chartA magnificently lyrical Tweezer pulls together ideas the band toyed with throughout 1999. Trey hops on keyboard to start the jam, building layers with Page. Fish & Mike generate momentum, but Trey remains patient while Page lays down beautiful chords. Trey takes the bait at 12:30 mark, and unloads a huge lick at 13:45 that Fish punctuates with the perfect fill. The bliss that ensues (and lasts through 19 min) is peak Phish, capable of turning a bad day on its head.
