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 liked reading this review and it confirms a lot of what i was seeing on the webcast (including a quick pan to the half moon hanging during the HTTM). Obviously the whole experience, including frolicking in the warm waters while during a rocking CDT, must have been amazing but this review and the above comment fly in the face of what this forum has always preached: that the ONLY thing that matters is the music, no matter whether you listen from home or are at the show. There are always incredible aspects to being at a Phish show that do not translate to a day-after download or even the webcast (i.e. a Festival, Vegas, the Gorge, etc.) but we've all been constantly told that the purpose for a review is to address the question of will the music stand up over time? With the exception of the Cities> Light is any of this show actually worth listening to again? I can understand how if you were there you'll have an emotional attachment to the moments when it happened and will hence want to re-listen, but not so much for the rest of us. The first set was more interesting than most, but the second set felt a little "Saturday night special", in my opinion.
