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.
The thing that worries me the most about the repeats is the notion that the Worcester shows were some sort of practice run for Bonnaroo and the tour at large. After last summer started off pretty improv heavy before working it's way towards some predominately standard shows, I'm hoping we don't get a repeat this year. Phish's improv feels so fresh right now, especially in the rare shows like the first two nights of Bethel where they have a handful of succinct thematic jams coming in unexpected places. I feel like that's a really interesting way to approach the song/jam dichotomy and probably both less tiresome and less predictable than simply dropping a 15 minute unfinished Disease every once in awhile.
