[i]Seemed like the biggest problem from 2010-2012 was that their standards for what constituted interesting improvisation might have been too high, and they'd try to pull the ripcord on something before it got less interesting to the crowd than the next song might be.[/i]
That's an interesting and generous take, and not incongruous with the notion that interband communication was lacking. I do think your conjecture makes sense when it comes to Trey and his desire to please.
