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.
Phish, management, if Phish plays this venue again, please take steps to stop tarping, space holding, and line cutting. I know you've taken active steps at other venues to make it a better experience, especially with respect to Tarpers.
Holding space is, overall, bullshit. For a few minutes, sure. Running in and holding down rows/zones for hours for absent people--garbage.
But the band needs to take active steps, since asking us to police ourselves isnt a great solution. It just leads to a "you can't tell me what to do" interaction--i can definitely state that it doesnt make things feel happy-shiny...i've tried.
