For sure, all these issues are interwoven. Family, career and sanity can be a delicate balancing act for everyone in life in general. I can totally relate. I'd honestly prefer *less* phish shows (heretic!) with more practicing taken to really polish the shit out of the sound. If there are only so many hours they can spend away from their families, then this seems to me to be the best compromise. While we all agree that they're having a hell of a lot of fun, it seems naive to me to assume they don't still look at their body of work with a critical and unsatisified eye. Like any consummate musician, which they undeniably are.
