That's how I found them as well, at the Melbourne gig. Thought they were awesome.

Scott Reeder played in long white basketball socks and they slowly came off his feet throughout the gig. By the last song he had these super long floppy things hanging off the end of his feet. Was hilarious.

And then Metallica played. Faaaaarrrrkkkk.

One of my all time favourite gigs.

I'm going to guess that it is a literal reference from ye olde years ago. Suspect that square racquet lawn tennis or jousting stick iron boys competitions paired up into matches by pulling numbered seeds out of an opaque cloth bag. At some point, some bespectacled enthusiast might have suggested that competitors with more success than others deserved a higher ranking on a matching tree and "seeds" were carried over as the non-clementure.
