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 adriedupgoliath
I gave this show a 4 based on music and not my individual experience but the importance of the show from the bands standpoint. I won't explain why this show marks a HUGE moment for the band because if you need that explanation then....well, I guess this review isn't for you.
The music: Set I- On paper, this may look like one of the coolest sets of all time. Fluffhead brought the loudest roar I've ever heard at any live event. The crowd hung on each note and lyric and it was absolutely the most appropriate song 3.0 could have started with. Divided followed by Chalkdust marks the one of the best 3 song openers I've ever seen (again, ON PAPER). The playing was clean, it was obvious they took practicing seriously but nothing adventurous. Just playing the songs as they were written. Highlights: Fluff, Divided, Chalkdust, Bowie.
Set II- BDTNL debut. Everyone seemed to be enjoying it. The whole set was average to slightly above minus the flub and restart with YEM, but they get a pass for that one. I know they're Phish but even they had to be nervous on a night like this.
Encore- Grind was fun, Bouncing at first was a bit disappointing but then they started releasing those giant balloons they had hanging from ceiling so that ended out pretty cool. Loving Cup was a nice way to wrap up what was arguably the most anticipated Phish show ever.
