I agree with all your picks except #4: Playing too many hits.
Their problem isn't playing too many hits, it's playing the same album cuts over and over again, tour after tour. Yes, I could go a few tours without hearing Bad Name, Who Says, or even Wanted, but I don't have a problem with those songs, it's singles that were failures (like Lost Highway, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, Whole Lot of Leaving, etc) and other album tracks that need to be replaced with other album tracks that haven't been played in years... and this kind of goes hand in hand with #8.
