I listend the last version in post #5.
Some small thing came to my mind.
Too long reverb with vocals when compare to the room of the band.
Stick is nice and full, but there you could try plate or room reverb to give it a small tail.
You might try to check the balance between bass and drums by soloing them. Together they are the rhythmic backbone of this song from 0:50 onwards. Think them as one instrument and listen if that instrument is in balance alone. Is it walking evenly, or is the other leg longer than other? Normally I want to find the balance when everything is on, but sometimes it's good to check the balance of some interplaying elements by muting everything else out.
