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'll never get why people pay all the money and go through the hassle of going to a show and then stand their flapping their gums all night.
The worst was at a King Crimson show years ago at the House of Blues (about 900 capacity). This man and two women had their backs to the stage the whole show, didn't stop talking at all. It gets to a really quiet part (Deception of the Thrush) towards the end and you could hear them more than the music. People shhhh'd them and *they got angry that people were doing that*.
For Phish, if you don't like the song they're playing, still shut up, good chance someone around you does.
