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.
Rose, how are you?! It's Brendan. I was roommates with Neil B in college at Villanova. I was reading this article and this line struck me as extremely familiar...
"I think few of us camped out in someone’s yard once we got there but I really don’t remember. I do remember a half dozen rowdy friends hilariously practicing the Meatstick as an ensemble post show."...
...with good reason. It was my parent's house in Freehold we all camped at, and I was part of the group doing the Meatstick postshow (we were showing it to my parents, who thought we were hilarious but smelly)!!! We did a bunch of shows together in the late 90s, including the Great Woods & Holmdel ones you write up here.
It would be great to reconnect with you after so long, and Neil as well! I just sent you a FB friend request.
Great article man, what a trip down memory lane!
