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.
Still don't think the "message" had anything at all to do with anything other than a cute way to introduce the song Icculus. But I will agree to disagree on that. You and @J_D_G can duke out the rest.
As for @harlemcracka, well, sir, you and Wingsuit are a tad out of line here, I think. NYE was a rather unique event and circumstance, and I'm really uncomfortable with the callous and utilitarian manner in which you are communicating your point. This is not the New York Times editorial page, it's a fan community.
Perhaps an actual music review of the show alongside the sonnata would be appropriate and appreciated, I grant you, but I cannot do anything but applaud @bertoletdown for what he wrote.
