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 a recap, not a review"? What's the difference? You certainly weren't writing as one who was objectively stating what was played and how well. Your whole review, and yes, it's a review, is written like someone who used to like Phish but now just likes what they want Phish to be.
This is the official Phish.net statement on the show. If you're just making your personal statement about the show, there's a whole forum here for you to do that. When it's posted on the main phish.net webpage, it becomes more than just one person's opinion. There's editorial judgment involved and all that.
Thousands of us share our comments on Phish all the time without having our opinions posted to the phish.net blog. And correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think I've ever seen you post in the forum. So it seems kinda rude for you to pull this "when I hear about how you feel about shows" thing on people who are simply pointing out that your review has a pretty jaded tone. It's like seeing a journalist respond to comments on Twitter, honestly. It should be beneath you entirely, but the fact that you're responding so haughtily isn't helping the initial impression.
