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.
I will say that the aborting of Harry Hood for What's the Use? was much more fluid last evening than the jarring forcing into Light at Bonnaroo. It's just unfortunate that WtU? was followed by Wading In the Velvet Sea, Possum. Maybe *that* was risky. Maybe the Ha Ha Ha in the first set was a sign of how they would end the second.
[There is mention of 14-minute songs. Looking at Live Phish, it appears as though there have been only three songs over 14 minutes that aren't written to be that length - one Ghost (by 30 seconds), one Down With Disease, and one Birds of a Feather. (The other two were Divided Sky and Fluffhead.)]
