Bjorn Joffee--
I remember that rally and listening to Claypool's radio coverage for KPFK (Pacifica Radio).
I am not 100% confident in writing this, but I believe Les Claypool, Jr. may not be alive...I was speaking to a (n older) performer at a folk festival, about 4-5 years ago, discussing Claypool and Skip Weschner. He said he was pretty sure that LC had passed away.
I checked laradio.com. The site says only that he is retired; they're pretty up-to-date.
Soooo? Good luck in getting proper information.
