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 don't get to go to many shows, and, truth be told, I'm usually too tired to even stay up late enough to catch the entire setlist, so one of my favorite things when I get to work in the morning during tour is to read the recap of the previous nights show. Some recaps seem to be posted within hours of the last note, and others still aren't posted days later. Is it because an assigned recapper has dropped the ball? No admins at the show? Hard to put the experience into words sometimes? Any reason is acceptable, and I defintely understand if writing a recap is the last thing someone wants to do after a show.
So, in summation, I love the recaps, it's a great addition to all that phish.net does, but I think it would be nice if their posting time was more consistent.
