It’s a new year and Riviera Maya is around the corner, so it's time once again for the Phish.net “Jam of the Year” tournament. As they have done yearly since 2014, Phish.net forum users have come together to seed a 64 jam bracket highlighting the best of improv of 2022.
Every Monday, we will create a thread to post new head-to-head matchups based on regions within the bracket, beginning in the Willy region. Voting for the first round is open to all and currently underway on the forum (look for the ***asterisks***). There you will also find that we have created LivePhish+ and Phish.in playlists for your listening pleasure and convenience. Please join us for voting, discussion, and debate on the forum each week as we narrow the field and ultimately determine the “2022 JOTY”.

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.
Side note - was listening to some June 2000 Phish today. Damn shame they took such a long break to recharge the batteries when they were still cooking.

Mr. Completely and Golden age, both incredible!!! Mr. C builds and builds, with really mesmerizing synth work from the chairman. The energy is so intense and after 7 minutes of climbing the mountain, they go into an epic Walk Away with Mr. C teases from fish. Chef’s kiss!!!
I was in tears during golden age’s triumphant peak. Fwiw, this rendition made it onto Mike’s 2022 highlights playlist.
