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.
When the band is getting as spacey as those years are thought of (often pejoratively) as being, they're fucking wonderful.
When they get into something spritely and melodic and rhythmic all at once, it's great.
But much more often, it's this Hawkwind-ish permashred dominating the proceedings.
And my love for that kind of thing waxes and wanes. It's been somewhere between New Moon & Crescent for the last few years, but this time next year I might adore a 15 minute guitar solo in Piper again.
