The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed over $2 million to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
My number one hope for this summer was that the band would start to step out of structure on a more regular basis, (once or twice a night, if that, was the norm for fall tour and the holiday run, even 1/1). Saturday fulfilled that hope in spades and has me incredibly fired up for the summer. There was just a lot more dark, psychedelic, abstract jamming on Friday and Saturday than we'd been seeing.
Unfortunately, I do agree that Sunday was an uneventful show from a jamming perspective, and flowed quite poorly. Here's to hoping that the risk taking of the first two nights represent the new norm for Phish this year.
