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.
But with that many people there I guess you can't take any chances. The first set was basically a warmup and the DWD was going places until it got ripcorded.
Had some afterward. I bunch of us snuck into the disco tent in the back for a while before we were kicked out. For the rain we were under a pavilion at the yatch club nearby. Now when Page made the announcement, he said it would blow over in half an hour and they'd come back (not that the decision is up to him or anything). No one told us the whole thing was cancelled really. I went back into the venue around 10:30 or so and went to the front row where the crew finally told us it was all over for the night (11pm cerfew). I then got drenched walking back to my car in the lot at Soldier Field.
Interesting night...
