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.
Review by Scott
The first set was very well played from start to finish and the equal of any 1st set this tour. CTB the best rendition I can recall, with Page providing more sonic range and color. Blaze On had a nice middleweight jam, and Wolfman's went pretty far out there while remaining in that first set type 1+ jamming syle, as did Sand. Funky Bitch raged and Rift was fast and clean. With a vacuum solo and only one song not from 1.0, this set has a classic feel. Blink and its 95, or 2000.
Tweezer and Bathtub contained multiple passages of hoseworthy improvisation, with Tweezer including the classic the slow-down ending. The Tweezer is a top 5 jam of the tour in my book
After the Bathtub, the show was merely standard fun phish, nothing sloppy but nothing epic in the run of high energy tunes after Bathtub, and I agree that More was poorly placed after a Hood that didn't leave much of an impression.
I have it ranked about 6th for this tour so far. I consider the first set to be almost half the show (because it is!) and I put this Tweezer in the top 5-6 big jams of the tour. Nash2, DC1, Hershey2, and the GA shows don't have that 4th quarter drop-off and deserve their reputations, but Atlantic City 1 has a lot of high quality improvisation lurking just underneath its typical/average looking setlist.
