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.

Setlist Thoughts
- You can't go wrong with a Landlady opener. Fishman's fills here fill the space that might otherwise be left to a percussion section, giving this performance a particularly Latin feel. Let Trey warm up those fingers before launching right into a raging Llama.
- Mockingbird narration is particularly colorful, and really highlight's Page/Mike/Fish's ability to accompany Trey's story telling.
- Stash peak is everything it always should be: verging on the edge of utter chaos with big, thunderous hits from Fishman and soaring bends from Trey. My only wish is that Fishman didn't reel it in for the "maybe sos/maybe nots" at the very end
- The Curtain is a great tune, if not for the catchy vocals and flashy composed section in the main tune, then for the anticipation that builds as the crowd wonders if it'll be With or Without. While most fans will unanimously stand by the With > Without ideology, 1.0 Phish tends to deliver something extra special in lieu of this song's extended outro. This show is no exception
- The crown jewel of this show is undoubtedly the tease-laden, fiery Possum. The entire band is on another level throughout this entire track from long drawn out intro through Trey's absolutely ridiculous solo. Best Possum I've ever heard
- I understand why they don't play All Things Reconsidered too often anymore: this track is tough. But the band aces it 30 years ago!
- Brother is one of those tunes that doesn't always click for me, but this version hits the sweet spot. Excellent chaotic energy from everyone, especially Trey (obviously) and Page on the organ. Nicely brought home
- Spirited Hood with some nice minor modal exploration in the early jam section. Trey sets up some fun descending arpeggios over Mike's pedal note and Page takes the opportunity to dance around on the piano. This slides seamlessly back into familiar major Hood territory, mostly thanks to Mike's navigation. The peak is energetic, if a bit busy.
- As if it weren't already Trey's show, we hear him take center stage in the encore as the show's titular Lawn Boy with a beautiful, emotional solo. Wild GTBT to bring the night to a close.
