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 thought the entire thing was outstanding, but that the 3D was unnecessary and potentially a distraction. The cameras NEVER STOPPED MOVING. Pans, tilts, zooms, sways, wandering... It would have been nice to get at least a few long stable shots to see the Kuroda show. A- as a movie, B- for the 3D aspects.
But as for seeing Phish? A+++! Stellar! Mike's frets 50' high. Everyone's expressions. Fantastic setlist. Flawless (flawless!) performances. Awesome crowd. Great venue.

Obviously no movie (even a 3D movie) can replicate the experience of a three-day Phish Festival. Having said that, I thought Phish 3D was a very good film and I really enjoyed the added depth. But the theater I went to wasn't even close to sold out. I saw Live in Brooklyn and both days of Coventry at nearby theatre in Dublin, CA and those showings were all sold out and people were dancing in the theatre and partying between sets like it was a real show. But those were live simulcasts whereas this was "just a movie."
There enough songs from Festival 8 that didn't make the cut that one could make a second movie. Party Time, Stash, Harry Hood, Rocks Off, Sweet Virginia, Torn and Frayed, Ventilator Blues -> I Just Wanna See His Face, 2001, Light, and Slave. Hopefully if they release this on DVD we'll get a bonus disc. Or they could even do a Clifford Ball-like box set of the entire festival.
as for the music, i was not overly impressed with festival 8 as a whole, but they edited it into a very nice tight "show." i thought ghost and fluff head would be a given, but they were left off. i will applaud the old school "set list" though. also, the "show" had excellent flow and hardly a dull moment- sure, i took a leak during sleep again. the new songs really held their own too. the look of sheer fun on trey's face during undermind was great. seeing the acoustic curtain was nice. i did not think they picked the stone's songs well. granted, i'm not a stones fan, but i hated that take of "happy"...horrible. granted, this might be the best loving cup i've heard, with the horns and the vocalist. hey, it was still the best movie i've seen in the theater in 3 years!! bravo phish!!
