I wanted to bring up a couple points that an orchestra conductor friend of mine brought up.
1. Why do major orchestras continue to base themselves in cities - what about the suburbs?
2. Perhaps the absence of a local music director takes a toll. So many times, the music director is somewhere else conducting.
