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.
First set was entertaining and very well-played if not consistently spectacular or inventive. Fuego was one of the most impressive jams I've seen the band play and showed how far Phish has come since 2009. In the moment, I thought it had more of a 1994 feel than many recent jams, with quick, semi-jarring stylistic shifts that paid off big but didn't overstay their welcome. Looking forward to seeing if it still feels that way upon playback.
The rest of the set was marred by sloppy playing and awkward transitions, and after the aforementioned mid-set lull, an impressive setlist ended up underachieving its promise.
The lights were outstanding. Subtle and gorgeous. The venue is excellent, and superior to Camden in nearly every way.
Ultimately, I experienced it as an uneven show with one true keeper jam in Fuego and some really great playing in the first set. Can't wait for tonight!
