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.

Sample kicked things off and set a very high energy level. I must say, Trey seemed really into it. The smile, the rock star body movements – really set a fun tone!
As others have stated, Martian Monster has gotten too short. It’s one of their best new jams, and hopefully it revives its former glory.
Axilla through AC/DC Bag kept the energy level up (although, I would love to see an Axilla Part 2, m.i.a. since 1995), before the only real surprise of the evening – my first Fuck Your Face! Perhaps inspired by Ween’s irreverent sets?
46 Days rocked and The Line actually worked better than usual. Limb By Limb, a high energy Possum (from band and crowd alike) and First Tube finished off a very satisfying first set.
The second set stumbled a bit out of the gate with a stunted Carini, standard Chalkdust and a Twist that felt tired. The whole “whoo” joke was lost on the festival crowd, and the Phish fans didn’t really care as it’s a bit played out.
Then Light hit. While many of the Light jams have a “sameness” to them, this one stands out (along with the Mansfield jam earlier in the summer). Best jam of the night (although the main part of the song was a bit messy).
It then reverted to the festival “best of” routine with one of the best Tweezers of the summer (felt a little “dangerous” as if it almost got away from them), a crowd pleasing cover of No Quarter, Harry Hood for the 1.0 devoted (young and old alike), and Tweezer Reprise to end the party.
But not before a Loving Cup encore which left Trey (and many in the crowd) with no voice left!
