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.
My only quibble with the piece was your assertion that there haven't been any good first sets this tour. Perhaps my ears are less well-tuned than yours, but I felt that SPAC3 was one of the best, albeit not perfect, 1st sets in a very long time. I also thought parts of NJ's 1st set were also excellent.
Great piece of writing either way. Thanks for braving the Velvet Sea for our benefit.
