Welcome to the 384th edition of Phish.Net's Mystery Jam Monday! This is technically the first MJM of August, but because we're more than halfway through the month already we'll split the difference and aim for a difficulty level of "medium rich." The winner will receive an MP3 download code courtesy of our friends at LivePhish.com / Nugs.Net. To win, be the first person to identify the songs and dates of both mystery clips. The clips are connected by a theme, but the theme needn't be part of the correct answer. Each person gets one guess to start – if no one answers correctly in the first 24 hours, I'll post a hint. After the hint, everyone gets one more guess before Wednesday at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. Good luck!
Hint: No one knew it at the time, but @justino dropped an extremely juicy hint in the comments just six minutes into the contest.
Answer: It took him six years to go from one win to two, but this time it only took @garcia17 two weeks to get his next win, his third overall. This week's MJM, which dropped on my birthday (it went a lot better than my birthday trip to New York last year), featured two jams from shows featuring "Happy Birthday to You": the breathtaking 12/31/15 "Blaze On," and the gnarled first-time back 3/8/09 "Twist." Come by Monday for a pair of tough clips from the MJM Emeritus crew for MJM385.

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.
