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 assume (do you?) that Phish knew Kevin played the Bethel Waves on the FTA? And if so they simply have to know the reaction it got. And if that is the case: It took Big Balls to pull it out knowing the expectations would be monstrous. Though, of couse, nothing ultimately like Bethel's version, I thought it was soaring, confidant, and enjoyable.
I too, enjoyed listening at home and thought overall it was a great festival. Handful of low points but that's what you get with that many hours of music.
I also wonder why there has been so much debate lately on if you can review a show without being there. Jesus Christ, haven't fans been doing that since the beginning of time? I used to have tape listening parties, and we'd rehash shows from a few weeks prior, what's the difference? People getting all bent out of shape and possessive over the shows they were at. Does not compute with me.
Nice job Chris.
