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.

Set 2 is certainly one of the more under-appreciated sets in the band's history. Effectively a four-song set, you've got one of the most unique Phish jams to date in Runaway Jim and a spectacular YEM whose quality extends far beyond the Boyd fiddle feature. As others have pointed out, there are certainly parallels to be drawn between this Jim and the Providence Bowie, though I personally find the various sections in Bowie are more distinctly separated than those in the Jim (not to say that makes it better; just a difference in the improvisational structure).
What's so spectacular about shows like this is that even the standard versions of tunes are spectacular. Killer Halleys > DwD to start, super fun Ya Mar, and breathtaking Squirming Coil (which, imo, belongs on the jam charts for its more unique harmonic explorations. Like the ALO version, Page dives deeper than usual on this one).
