MYSTERY JAM MONDAY PART 120
Welcome... Power's back and so is the Mystery Jam here at Phish.net. As usual we will be playing for an MP3 download, courtesy of our friends at LivePhish.com / Nugs.Net. The rules haven't changed: you need to correctly identify the song and the date to win. Post your guess in the comments. One guess per person per day (with the second “day” starting after I post the hint). A hint will be posted on Tuesday (if necessary) and the answer will be posted on Wednesday. Good luck...
Before we go, I hope you'll indulge the Blog in a small plea for charitable donations. As most of you know, Phish.net is an all-volunteer project of the Mockingbird Foundation. While donations to Mockingbird are always welcome, if you enjoy the Mystery Jam (or Phish.net, in general) and can afford to, please consider making a donation to the Red Cross or one of the many other worthwhile charitable organizations helping families recover from the devastation of Hurricane Sandy.
Thursday Answer: Congrats to jmponder for being the first to ID the 7/29/98 "Buried Alive." Really makes you wonder why they never tried to jam that song out again. The Blog will return on Monday with another Mystery Jam...

The Mockingbird Foundation
As noted in The Lawn Boys blog post today, it's very likely that The Mockingbird Foundation will also be donating money collected at that show and online now to the Sandy relief efforts (a little later than the immediate needs for warm clothes and food the Red Cross is seeking donations for).
As in the recent disasters from floods and tornadoes in the past several years, we will be granting "emergency" grants to public schools and music education charities to replace musical instruments lost in natural disasters.
One of the benefits to donating to Mockingbird, as opposed to the huge national charities, is that loss of kid's musical instruments is very much on our radar screen as our main mission and that the size of the grant requests we can fund is much smaller than the large charities can deal with. However, it usually takes several months for schools and programs to assess disaster losses and for us to get in touch with institutions in the affected areas to assess their needs for replacement instruments.
