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.
Review by thelot
The beginning of Sloth is clipped. Stash is well played. There’s a tape flip after Sparkle, and the start of It’s Ice is cut. Sulu pulls out his bone for I Didn’t Know. During Bowie’s hi-hat hijinks, Trey notes that the crew will finally get to sleep in their own beds for the first time in nine weeks. He then presents Paul, Chris, Pete, and Andrew with monogrammed bathrobes in appreciation of their hard work on tour. The rest of the Bowie intro features secret language and bathrobe banter before settling into a nice version to close out set one. Overall, a fairly standard first set for this tour.
Set two opens with another Tube, but instead of heading into MSO, the band launches into a beautifully inspired Divided Sky. Afterward, they pause while Fish pulls a splinter from his finger (“at least it shows he was working hard during that last tune!”). Cavern gets a fun intro, Chalk Dust rips, and A-Train is especially strong. YEM is pure bliss, gorgeous from top to bottom, and a playful Golgi caps off a rock-solid set. The encore is missing from the tape.
