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.

Farmhouse lifts the mood a bit, but still retains (at least to me) a nostalgic tone that suits this second set very well. Then who can resist Simple, especially a jammed-out Simple? It has already been remarked upon, and rightly so. A high-energy First Tube propels the set to a screaming end, and good night. Oh no, here comes Bathtub Gin as an encore; the band exsudes confidence, Page is having quite some fun, as does the audience singing along.
If you're mostly interested in titanic jams, the next show at Shoreline will probably best suit you, but this second set is extremely coherent and could stand on its own as some kind of concept album by some progressive band (and of course there is no lack of solos by Trey and rich interplay between the boys). I have played the first set only once, but it has already been noted that it is quite unique in its song selection. So, as a whole, this concert should be remembered as a high-density performance by four awesome musicians. I find its current rating of 3.85 or so quite unjustifiably low.
