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 was in no way saying we should not have critical reviews and I'm not even suggesting that this was a 'great' show. I think it was average for summer 2012 at best. I agree that there are many times that someone writes a negative review then people in the comments fluff it or trash the reviewer for being critical of a show they were at. But it just seems like the majority of .net reviews these days pine for days gone by. Maybe this is not true, but the reviews read that way. I'm sure I'm not the only one who reads them as such.
And for what it is worth, I generally am the 'jaded vet' of my crew. So it is rather funny to be calling someone out as being 'jaded.'
