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.
Such a long layoff opens up almost all songs, which then I think they tend to "lean" on their strongest ones which is why it doesn't rate as high. There were also a lot of new songs this year since last Dicks that they wanted to showcase, which isn't what some people want to hear. Also, the graph makes 2019 appear low, but rating close to a 4 is still solid imo.
I do think them playing together closer to the shows helps and I am all for a 2-leg run of June and August again or something similar where Dicks really is the summer tour closer and not a one-off.
