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 LivePhish dSBD of this one has a nice amount of room sound mixed in.
They kick off the New Year’s party with a pretty straightforward Possum, followed by a well-played Foam. Trey breaks out his new Christmas present, The Final Word, at the start of Sparkle — hilarious moment with the “fucking jerk!” bit. Minor fumble to open Stash, but Trey more than makes up for it with a strong solo. A fantastic Sky is dedicated to Chris Gainty, and The Final Word makes another appearance during Esther. The composed section there is a little shaky, but Llama closes the set with pure shred.
Set 2 opens with a fairly standard Brother. Right before Buried Alive, Trey lets everyone know there are only two minutes left in 1991. He drops a cool Auld Lang Syne tease before the countdown, and a lively Runaway Jim ushers in 1992. Beautiful Reba here, and a sharp intro to Cavern, though Trey stumbles over some lyrics. Mike drops a Nellie Kane tease during the Antelope intro, but the move into the jam is messy. Still, the jam itself is decent.
Wilson kicks off set 3, packed with Trey throwing out final words like “you’re an asshole” and “fuckin’ jerk!” to the crowd’s delight. The Tweezer jam that follows is gorgeous, and McGrupp serves as the perfect landing pad. Mike’s Song hits hard — the second jam slips into a really nice groove, making this one of the hottest versions in a while. Weekapaug closes strong, with Trey tossing in some fun Lion Sleeps Tonight teases. Before the encore, Trey takes a moment to introduce Marjorie Minkin’s art, which was being displayed for the first time. Lawn Boy includes a Christmas Song tease, and Rocky Top into Tweezer Reprise seals the night with a burst of energy.
