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’ve seen Phish in Charlotte & couple of shows in Raleigh. IMO Live Oak Pavilion in Wilmington is not a good venue for Phish. It’s too small and views are limited for those blocked by the sound boards/tent.
(I say this reluctantly bc it’s very convenient as I live only 20 miles away.)
Live Oak Pavilion accommodates ~7500 versus Walnut Creek (Raleigh) ~15-20K.
The Pavilion shut down the show bc of a lightning storm, yet forced attendees to evacuate onto the riverfront boardwalk. This caused bottlenecks of foot traffic with attendees crowded by towering metal lights in puddles of shin-deep water.
Live Oak Pavilion (managed by Live Nation) did a poor job. The following night the Darius Rucker show was interrupted & Live Oak had attendees evacuate and then return. ????
Not sure this is a good venue for Phish when playing NC.
