RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan celebrated his 56th birthday in model, spending it at a Phish present in Boulder, Colorado.
Phish, who took the stage on Saturday, July fifth at Boulder’s Folsom Area after a rain delay, have been enjoying a canopy of Speaking Heads’ “Crosseyed and Painless” when drummer Jon Fishman shouted out the Wu-Tang chief with a hearty “Glad birthday, RZA!”
Trey Anastasio added to the festive temper by enjoying a fast rendition of “Glad Birthday” on his guitar, calling out “Wu-Tang eternally” in celebration of RZA’s huge day.

RZA obtained the VIP therapy after the present, going backstage to spend time with Phish, the place he received to take a look at Anastasio’s guitar up shut and take a photograph with the band. See the Instagram photographs (together with Anastasio quoting Wu-Tang’s “seventh Chamber – Pt. II” for the caption) and a fan-shot video of Phish wishing RZA a contented birthday under. The birthday shoutouts kick in across the 4:15 mark.
