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.
Having been at the first 3 nights and streaming NYE at home with our 2 year old - I found myself thinking for a moment - How am I not there? This night of all nights?
That thought quickly turned to "I am so psyched to be HERE... and I feel just like I am there" - the power of that show came right through on the stream - and we were enjoying it with the little one we love most - who most likely wouldn't exist without this band and my wifes needing a ticket to a show being the reason we met.
Like the old days - the reason we love Phish so much - plus - the last three nights were pretty f-in awesome in retrospect.
Sidenote to Reviewer - Those Hampton '88 shows were my formal introduction to the scene too - and when they busted that "Quinn The Eskimo" encore the second night of Hampton this Fall - just like Jerry did our first year - it brought a smile and a tear to my eye knowing the power of so many songs would continue to carry on and across to generation after generation.
