The 9 & 30 Club?

Monday 01/06/2025 by Lemuria

Nine days ago, the all-volunteer Mockingbird Foundation announced its 30th set of unsolicited Tour Grants.

Nine days from now, initial funding inquiries close for Mockingbird's 30th round of competitive grants.

Nine months from now, Mockingbird begins its 30th year, having started in October 1996 discussions.

And, if you round up (to include the 4/20 Fuego), there were nine Phish jams in 2024 that were 30 minutes or longer. It's as if.. they knew today was coming!

If you liked this blog post, one way you could "like" it is to make a donation to The Mockingbird Foundation, the sponsor of Phish.net. Support music education for children, and you just might change the world.

I was born at 9pm on 9/9/1970. Jimi Hendrix died 9 days after I was born. On 9/9/99 at 9pm I turned 29 (Celebrated by doing 9 shots though out the night...). 9.9.09 was at a Mike Gordon show in Sommerville. He yelled out something about the number 9.
If 6 was 9.
# 9 is a great number for me!

Score: 5
