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'm not here to agree or disagree with the post. But I will say, I've relistened to Cypress, Coventry and Oswego a lot. IX and 8 I don't really listen to, because to me, they offer more of what we were getting, which was well played versions of songs without a lot of big jams. I love Exile, but the Exile set isn't one I listen to much, as I'd rather hear the album. The acoustic is a treat. But I come back for big jams. And as crappy as Coventry is, it does have some of my favorite festival jams. I'll concede that Cypress has a lot of very similar jams throughout, but I also heard a lot of very familiar jams in Magnaball that I've heard this summer. And while Oswego is not a top of the list kind of festival, it has a lot of nice stuff going for it. Oswego is why I love bluegrass, and has an incredible BOTT. Plus that Piper, Jim, Tweezer.
I've never actually listened to Clifford. Weird, huh? That must mean something.
