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.
That said, this show benefits a bit from the old Cornell 5/8/77 argument...ie it gets a reputation boost because of the sbd treatment (or in the case of 5/8/77 one of the best sounding unreleased boards ever). This doesn't so much negate its choice here as I think ensures that some other shows just haven't been as poured over analytically (read 11/19, 12/2, and 12/3). Anyhow, a fine choice.
