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.
It's the zany, nonsensical lyrics of those songs that got me hooked on this dorky band back in junior high. And that's one reason I've had a tough time stomaching some of the more serious songs: it's just not their forte. It actually took me a long time to like some slower and more serious songs like Waste and If I Could. Perhaps someday I will come around on Show of Life as well. But they'd never end the show with the other two.
