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.

We got a respite with Silent in the Morning, Meatstick, and a rocking version of Quinn the Eskimo. Then, an album-perfect YEM to close out the set pre-encore. I loved Sanity and Bold as Love as the encore - nice to get a couplet of unexpected show-closers!
The first set was a typically good-not-great one, save for excellent versions of Divided Sky and Gumbo (which had me dancing like crazy). It was nice to get a first set full of songs we haven't seen much of lately, plus the first 2013 appearances of Foam and Train Song. No complaints here.
Despite some issues at the beginning of tour (like when Trey had issues remembering parts of certain songs, and his "ripcording" of several notable jams,) all that was gone by the time West Coast tour started. Each show improved upon the previous one in some way. All in all, summer 2013 has given us an entire highlight reel of all-time moments. And everyone's going to be talking about the Tahoe Tweezer for, like, ever.
Here's hoping the momentum they built in California carries over to Dick's at the end of the month!
