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.

DWD is a compact ripper it has a fantastic segue into Makisupa (the first of several epic segues during this show). CDT has an explosive fantastic guitar solo. Good quick Ghost jam (are there any bad versions of Ghost in 97'?). Divided Sky is notably strong and likely one of the best versions I've ever heard. Taste is strong as most are from this year.
Mikes Song jam starts with an awesome 97' cowfunk jam it goes into a nice groove before evolving into a tense jam. Although this whole sequence is epic I have to say Simple is mighty sloppy. However, the segue from Simple -> Dog Face Boy is fantastic It is just seamless. Great segue into YaMar, the jam that ensues is very funky and Mike slaps the crap out of the Bass. This is before a legendary segue into Weekapaug, probably the best segue into it ever. Mike just keeps slapping away as it turns into the Weekapaug intro. It is very slow at the beginning with extra funk. It speeds up gradually into a crazy powerful shredtastic jam. Trey just explodes with energy. Bouncing is a very cool down after the fact. Zero brings it's typical high energy to cap the set.
Sample has a very explosive solo that ends this wild show on a high note.
