They are just so different.

I dont think comparing them to PJ and Phish in that aspect is unfair, they all came up around the same time and have massive followings with fans who travel.
the band doesnt pick releases, so that doesnt count, and PJ & phish have their avenues of having a bunch of live music available to fans too.
The only thing that DMB does that stands above the other two is constant touring. While yes it is great, I think its held them back creatively and has worn them down more than they should be.
Id very much be for changing the way they tour.
