So you did count the break-up years as years they were still a band. Gotcha

All bands have stopped at one point or another, and Phish took several ~6-month breaks prior to the "hiatus". Measuring continuity (e.g. "most continuous) would require either some arbitrary threshold for max allowed break, or some moving average based on a window of arbitrary length. Meanwhile, the it's not a "still a band" dichotomy, but a count that assesses difference from zero.
