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.
I was driving up to the second night of Worcester with one of my best friends from Rutgers that I've known for the last fifteen years. We used to be in a band with another friend back in the day, and on our drive up 287 through New Jersey, we passed the exit for his hometown. We started talking about him and I mentioned how he lived in the same neighborhood as the actor Abe Vigoda. Apparently, Abe is good friends with his family and would eat Thanksgiving dinner at his house every year. Fast forward a week and suddenly, of all the people in the world, Abe Vigoda is on stage with Phish for Wombat. For this alone, Wombat instantly has a place in my heart, (not to mention the awesome Godfather parody at the set break).
Fuego! I fell in love with this song right away. I think Waiting All Night and Winterqueen are the two songs most likely to get type II in the near future.
