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 love reading some of the stuff on this site, but once in a while, it seems everyone on here is a little too arrogant in the wants and desires of this group of gentleman. I don't give one shit if they play 40 songs in one night or if they play a 70 minutes Gin for the first set, a 90 Jim for the second set and follow it up with a Sleeping Monkey encore. I'm happy to be along for the ride.
This is their life. They do this constantly and have been for so many years now. Its not all going to be bust outs and locked in jams. They're going to play it straight sometimes. They're going to get wild sometimes. They're going to fall and they're going to fly. Just like we all do in our own lives. Every single day. Turn off your brains once in a while and enjoy the ride.
