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.
So... I was listening to a Ratdag show on youtube and came across a comment aimed at the Fare Thee Well tour and Trey. Apparently the author is a Trey hater.
Below is his comment, my translation and rewrite of his comment as I deciphered it. And my reply to his comment, in rhyme.
Note: "evilC" is my idiom for "see".

How I translated and deciphered shane scully's comment:
There is an upcoming 50th Anniversary concert the Grateful Dead will be presenting. I wouldn't go, even if I could. Trey is playing lead and I hate him and Phish. So I'll go evilC, Dark Star Orchestra, if I want to evilC a good show. I just can't believe they picked Trey for lead guitar. John or Warren would have been more fitting for the bill.
And... drum roll please... Without any further ado

Hopefully they'll grant me immunity, based on my blind man maturity mug
But hating Trey, I just can't do it
With that, I'll end this rant and chew it
Spit it out on this bucket of hell
For this will be the last
Fare Thee Well
