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.
Thanks for injecting that into the conversation.
The post isn't political. It doesn't endorse or degrade. It merely point out that the business of "Rock" is large enough that the economics of Rock is important enough to have been studied by the man in charge of the President's economic advisers.
In other words, this is a Phish website, Phish plays Rock, Rock is economically important enough that the economists at the highest level of Govt took enough interest to study Rockonomics.
Rock is really BIG MONEY.
