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.
Great writeup. I don't think Merriweather is an armpit at all, but it's a matter of perspective. I vividly remember seeing the Dead there in '85 perform the most electrifying version of Shakedown Street I've heard to this day. I remember all the hay and grass puffing into the air like dragon smoke as everyone danced and gyrated in bliss.
Phish's Merriweather shows in '11 were outstanding. Just saying.
