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.
The first set contains a magnificent, gorgeous version of "Halfway to the Moon," obvious to anyone with ears who isn't prejudiced against the song per se. Trey usually plays it rotely, almost like he couldn't give a shit at all whatsoever about it. But last night's version is soulful and charming, performed in a manner that I wish it were performed in every damn time they play it.
It's a MUST HEAR HTTM for fans of the song, of which I am one.
As for the second set "Simple" it, too, is MUST HEAR, of course, but you knew, or should have known, that already. If you haven't yet heard it, you need to listen to it as soon as possible, and with extreme prejudice.
